The ratio of elimination to substitution is exactly the same (26% elimination) for 2−bromo−2−methylbutane and 2−iodo−2−methylbutane in 80% ethanol/20% water at 25°C. By what mechanism does elimination most likely occur in these compounds under these conditions?

The famous scientist galileo galilei did several experiments with sloping planes, which he rolled metal balls down so that he could study motion. by changing the slope, he could study how the speed at which the ball rolled was affected. what was the independent variable in galileo's experiment? a. the speed of the ball b. the slope of the plane c. whether the ball moved d. what the ball was made of
