In my OChem class we have been learning about SN1, SN2, E1, E2 and it's kind of insane.

Can someone help me distinguish between all of them?  I know SN is nucleophilic substitution and E is elimination, that's about it.  I kind of understand SN2 because that's what we learned first, but not the other ones.

Thanks in advance!

Nevermind, here is a good site which explained it better for me in conjunction with wikipedia: http://www.bluffton.edu/~bergerd/classes/CEM221/sn-e/

you can distinguish them by mechanism of its. SN1 is one molarcular attach: SN2 is two and E1, E2 at the same
