**Chapter 7 Worksheet** 1. Given the following reaction, draw reasonable mechanisms that describe the chemical transformation that has taken place. To the right, list the name of the elementary mechanistic step used in the transformation. [Diagram of Benzene and NO2+ Ion] The diagram illustrates a chemical reaction involving a benzene ring and nitronium ion (NO2+), leading to a benzene ring substituted with a nitro group (NO2). --- Explanation of the Diagram: - **Benzene Ring**: A hexagonal shape with alternating single and double bonds, representing the aromatic benzene molecule. - **Reactant**: The benzene ring reacts with the nitronium ion (NO2+). - **Product**: The benzene ring with a nitro (NO2) group attached. - **Reaction Arrow**: Indicating the transformation from the reactants to the product. - The task is to draw the mechanism of how the benzene ring undergoes nitration to form the nitrobenzene product.
