(d) ortho and para chlorobenzene sulphonic acids are formed.
Explanation:
On sulphonation of chlorobenzene (C₆H₅Cl), ortho and para chlorobenzene sulphonic acids (C6H5ClO3S) are formed. Sulphonic acid refers to a member of the class of organosulfur compounds with the general formula R−S(=O)2−OH, where R is an organic alkyl or aryl group and the S(=O)2(OH) group a sulfonyl hydroxide.
Option D is the answer.
