उत्तर
(i) The rate of reaction depends on the concentration of only (b).
(iii) Molecularity of reaction is one.
Explanation:
SN1 occurs in two steps. I, the polarized \[\ce{C - Cl}\] bond undergoes slow cleavage to produce a carbonation and a chloride ion. The carbocation thus formed is then attacked by nucleophile in step II to complete the substitution reaction. Step I is the slowest and reversible. It involves the \[\ce{C - Cl}\] bond breaking for which the energy is obtained through salvation of halide ion with the proton of protic solvent. Since the rate of reaction depends upon the slowest step, the rate of reaction depends only on the concentration of alkyl halide and not on the concentration of hydroxide ion. So, the rate-determining step is unimolecular.
