Question about SN1 and SN2 mechanism
I need help writing the balanced equations for the attached problems and determining which reactions proceed by an SN1 mechanism and SN2 mechanism.
---
1. Write the balanced equations for the following:
a. 2-bromobutane + NaI 
b. 2-bromobutante + AgNO3 + EtOH 
c. 2-bromo-2-methylpropane + NaI 
d. 2-bromo-2-methylpropane + AgNO3 + EtOH 
e. 1-bromobutane + NaI 
f. 1-bromobutane + AgNO3 + EtOH 
g. bromocyclohexane + NaI 
h. 1-bromoadamantane + NaI 
i. 1-bromoadamantane + AgNO3 + EtOH 
2. Which reactions proceed by an SN1 mechanism? By an SN2 mechanism?

"Thank you so much, I couldn't ask for more"
"Thankyou so much, clear and precise info, brilliant!!! I feel like I actually understand!!! Thanks"
"Wow, super, thank you! Sorry but for the first article... How about this quotation? is this grammatically okay? I've tried to correct some errors.. According to a representative of Japan Eximbank, "Jordan's Al Quatrana Private Sector development project is expected to project USD 420M worth of foreign currency inflows. And it will also promote foreign exchange earning effect through the export of generator facilities and equity participation." He also added that, "this project will be the threshold for the Korean companies to participate actively in the Middle East, which is the world's largest private sector development market.""
"Great!!"
"thanks!! always love your work :-)"
