The rate law of nitration of benzene using a mixture of nitric acid and sulphuric acid is

Answer»

RATE `=k ["BENZENE"] [NO_(2)^(+)] [H^(+)]`
rate `= k [HNO_(3)] [H_(2)SO_(4)]`
rate `= k ["benzene"] [NO_(2)^(+)]`
rate `= k ["benzene"] [H_(2)SO_(4)]`

Solution :Nitration of benzene is a second order reaction (FIRST order with respect to benzene and first order with respect to `NO_(2)^(+)` ) LTBR. `:.` Rate = `k` [Benzene] `[NO_(2)^(+)]`
