      no you're right, he made a mistake. As you go to the right in a row of the periodic table nucleophilicity decreases, for the same reason basicity decreases: the atoms are more stable with their negative charge, leading to them reacting less.

    Why would iodine, in potassium iodide, displace bromine when bromine is more nucleophilic than iodine? Thanks.

    • @wren8502
      @wren8502 3 роки тому +2

      a little late sorry but the iodine has a negative charge while the bromine does not, halogens will be nucleophilic if they are charged but they will be electrophilic if they are attached to a sp3 hybridized carbon
