Which of the following is NOT a correct statement about electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism? Formation of a carbocation intermediate is the rate-determining step. The carbocation intermediate contains an sp3 hybridized carbon in the ring. The addition product is a frequent minor product. Aromaticity is regained by loss of H+ Benzene functions as nucleophile.

Which of the following statements about substituent effect in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions (E.A.S.) is false? Electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) passivates the benzene ring for ortho and para substitution Carbonyl group which are bonded directly to the ring are called electron withdrawing groups (EWGs) In nitration of benzaldehyde, major products are ortho and para-nitro benzaldehyde Regioselectivity in multiple subtitution is determined by the substituent which has a higher activation effect F, Cl, Br, and I are orto-para directing groups, but have passivating effect

Which of the following is a correct statement regarding electrophilic aromatic substitution? A. Many suitable electrophiles are unreactive and can be stored for long periods of time prior to use. B. The carbocation intermediate will lose a proton to regain aromaticity, usually from a position other than the site of the electrophilic attack. C.
