Current Question (ID: 8548)

Question:
$\text{Consider the nitration of benzene using mixed conc. H}_2\text{SO}_4 \text{ and HNO}_3\text{. If a large amount of KHSO}_4 \text{ is added to the mixture, the rate of nitration will be:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{Slower}$
  • 2. $\text{Unchanged}$
  • 3. $\text{Doubled}$
  • 4. $\text{Faster}$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: Common ion effect}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{When nitration of benzene occurs in the presence of conc. H}_2\text{SO}_4 \text{ and HNO}_3\text{, nitrobenzene is formed.}$ $\text{HNO}_3 + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \rightleftharpoons \text{NO}_2^+ + \text{HSO}_4^- + \text{H}_2\text{O}$ $\text{Electrophile} \quad \text{Nucleophile}$ $\text{If a large amount of KHSO}_4 \text{ is added to this mixture, more HSO}_4^- \text{ ion is furnished which decrease the concentration of NO}_2^+ \text{ i.e., electrophile. As the concentration of electrophile decreases, the rate of electrophilic aromatic substitution slows down.}$
