Benzene → Nitrobenzene
Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Benzene | HCID 241 | — |
| Reactant | Nitric Acid | HCID 944 | — |
| Solvent | Water | HCID 962 | — |
| Product | Nitrobenzene | HCID 7416 | — |
Reaction Steps
The reaction of benzene with nitric acid to give nitrobenzene and water is highly exothermic (ΔH=−117 kJ/mol), and in the processes mentioned above the large excess of sulfuric acid takes up almost quantitatively the reaction enthalpy in the form of heat liberated during the reaction, as well the water formed thereby.
