in this reaction, the halogen atom will repel the OH- ion and the ion will attack the carbon atom from the back . an activated complex will be formed.

sn 1= tertiary haloalkane undergo hydrolysis by sn 1 mechanism because the protection of three big alkyl group that protect the carbon atom from nucleophile

· Production of chlorine and sodium hydroxide

· Production of sodium chlorate and potassium chlorate

· Production of perfluorinated organic compounds such as trifluoroacetic acid by the process of electrofluorination

· Production of electrolytic copper as a cathode, from refined copper of lower purity as an anode.

· Production of oxygen for spacecraft and nuclear submarines.

· Production of hydrogen for fuel, using a cheap source of electrical energy.

· The making of chlorine and caustic soda for chlor-alkali industry.

· Hair removal for aesthetic purposes. It works by destroying the hair follicle producing the unwanted strand of hair.

· Separating water molecules into their base elements of hydrogen and oxygen. This technique is useful in harsh or restricted environments.

· The creation of substances s Sodium chlorate, potassium chlorate, chlorine and aluminium all are produced via electrolysis.

· Electroplating is commonly used for various purposes such as: the bumpers of cars are chromium-plated and water taps being plated with nickel or chromium to protect them from corrosion; ‘tin’ cans being only iron plated with tin to prevent rusting; a ‘silver’ spoon being electroplated for decoration.
