Question

Toluene gives nitration reaction more easily than chlorobenzene why

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation: "nitro group is electrophilic".

Methyl group increases electron density on benzene ring due to inductive effect.

You must know that for chlorine inductive (-I) effect is more than resonance, so net effect is such that chlorine pulls electron, in a way decreasing the electron density on benzene ring.
