Consider the nitration of benzene using mixed conc. H2SO4 and HNO3. If a large amount of KHSO4 is added to the mixture, the rate of nitration will be

  1. unchanged
  2. doubled
  3. faster
  4. slower

Answer

(4) slower

Solution

Electrophile formation in nitration:

HNO3 + 2H2SO4 NO2+ + H3O+ + 2HSO4-

∵ KHSO4 supplies a large amount of the common ion HSO4- ⇒ equilibrium shifts backward (Le Chatelier's principle).

⇒ Concentration of the nitronium ion NO2+ decreases.

∴ The rate of nitration becomes slower.

Answer: (4)
