Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
To get a better understanding watch the picture attached.
In the case of the reaction with Bromine, the -N(CH₃)₂ is a strong ring activator, therefore, it promotes a electrophilic aromatic sustitution, so, in the mechanism of reaction, the lone pair of the Nitrogen, will move to the ring by resonance and activate the ortho and para positions. That's why the bromine wil go to the ortho and para positions, mostly the para position, because the -N(CH₃)₂ cause a steric hindrance in the ortho position.
In the case of the reaction with HNO₃/H₂SO₄, the acid transform the -N(CH₃)₂ in a protonated form, the anilinium ion, which is a deactivating of the ring, and also a strong electron withdrawing, so, the electrophile will go to the meta position instead.
Hope this helps.
