1. Electrophilic elimination reaction
2. Electrophilic substitution reaction
3. Free radical addition reaction
4. Nucleophilic substitution reaction
Chlorobenzene is formed by the reaction of chlorine with benzene in the presence of . Which of the following species attacks the benzene ring in this reaction?

3. (iii) < (ii) < (i)
4. (i) < (iii) < (ii)
Select the correct option based on statements below:
Assertion (A): | The presence of a nitro group at ortho or para position increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilic substitution. |
Reason (R): | The nitro group, being an electron-withdrawing group, decreases the electron density over the benzene ring. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
