Explanation:

Benzene undergoes electrophilic substitution reactions, these substitution reactions include:

1. Halogenation reaction

2. Friedel-Crafts reaction

3. Sulphonation reaction

4. Nitration reaction

In a halogenation reaction, a hydrogen atom in the ring is replaced by a halogen atom. In the case of our reaction below, the bromine atom already in the ring, directs the incoming electrophile towards the ortho and para positions in the ring, hence the products shown below.

why do the isotopes of a particular element behave differently in nuclear reactions but the same in chemical reactions? chemical reactions involve changes to electrons in an atom; isotopes do not differ in electrons, and so they react the same way during chemical changes.

answer: enthalpy

explanation:

for a exothermic reaction, the energy is released i.e. the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

= enthaply

= energy of products

= energy of reactants

as , thus comes out to be negative. negative value of enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic.
