An equimolar mixture of toluene and chlorobenzene is treated with a mixture of conc. `H_(2)SO_(4)` and conc. `HNO_(3)` Indicate the correct statement from the following :

A

p-nitrotoluene is formed in excess

B

Equimolar amounts of p-nitrotoluene and p-ntrochlorobenzene is formed

C

p-nitrochlorobenzene is formed in excess

D

m-nitrochlorobenzene is formed in excess

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
As tolutene and chlorobenzene, both can react with mixture of conc. `H_(2)SO_(4)` but `.^(-)CH_(3)` is more reactive thus toluene will yield p-nitrotoluene in excess.
