Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The products formed when given compound is treated with ${\text{HNO}}_{\text{3}}$ and ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}{\text{SO}}_{\text{4}}$ are to be drawn. Whether the reaction occurs faster or slower than a similar reaction with benzene is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Benzene undergoes electrophile substitution. The kinetics of the electrophilic substitution reaction depends upon the nature of substituent present on the benzene ring. Electron releasing groups activates the ring towards the electrophilic substitution reaction while electron withdrawing groups deactivates the ring towards the electrophilic substitution reaction.
