<span><span>The reaction is as follows:
C6H6 </span>+ HNO3 + H2SO4 ------------> </span>C6H5NO2<span> + H</span>2<span>O
(BENZENE) (NITRIC ACID)(CATALYST)
</span>NO2(+) is the electrophile that acctacks on the benzene ring in nitration process.
I know it would be calcium chloride, not sure why. Maybe someone could answer that part.
The answer to this is t<span>he atom is mostly empty space.</span>
Activity series of metals: K,Na,Mg,Al,Zn,Fe,Cu,Ag. Metals on the left are more reactive than metals on the right. For example Zn is more reactive than Fe and can displace him.
Reaction than can occur is: <span>CuSO4(aq) + Fe(s) → FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s).</span>
