NEET Chemistry Substitution Reactions MCQ Question
What is the effect of resonance on the electron density in chlorobenzene at the ortho and para positions compared to the meta position?
Higher at ortho and para than meta
Higher at meta than ortho and para
Equal at ortho, meta, and para
Negligible at ortho and para
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Resonance in chlorobenzene increases electron density at the ortho and para positions, making them more reactive compared to the meta position.
