Answer:
1) HNO3/H2SO4, 2) CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3
Explanation:
Benzene is a stable aromatic compound hence it undergoes substitution rather than addition reaction.
When benzene undergoes substitution reaction, the substituent introduced into the ring determines the position of the incoming electrophile.
If I want to synthesize m-nitropropylbenzene, I will first carry out the nitration of benzene using HNO3/H2SO4 since the -nitro group is a meta director. This is now followed by Friedel Craft's alkykation using CH3CH2CH2Cl/AlCl3.

Explanation: True, Ammonia is a base
<u>Answer:</u> The red litmus paper turns blue on dipping in NaOH solution.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Litmus paper is the indicator that detects the nature of the solution, whether it is acidic or basic.
There are 2 types of litmus paper:
- <u>Red litmus paper:</u> This paper will turn blue if it is dipped in basic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in acidic solution.
- <u>Blue litmus paper:</u> This paper will turn red if it is dipped in acidic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in basic solution.
NaOH is a strong base, so when a red litmus paper is dipped in the beaker having necessary amount of NaOH, the red litmus paper turns into blue.
