Match List-I with List-II.

LIST-I (Conversion)LIST-II (Reagents, Conditions used)
P. figure1. Warm,   H2O\text{Warm,\; }\mathrm{H_{2}O}
Q. figure2. (a) NaOH,  368  K;\mathrm{NaOH},\;368\;\mathrm{K}; (b) H3O+ \mathrm{H_{3}O^{+}}
R. figure3. (a) NaOH,  443  K;\mathrm{NaOH},\;443\;\mathrm{K}; (b) H3O+ \mathrm{H_{3}O^{+}}
S. figure4. (a) NaOH,  623  K,  300  atm;\mathrm{NaOH},\;623\;\mathrm{K},\;300\;\mathrm{atm}; (b) H3O+ \mathrm{H_{3}O^{+}}

Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

  1. Option A:

    (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)

  2. Option B:

    (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)

    Correct
  3. Option C:

    (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)

  4. Option D:

    (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

Presence of EWG at ortho and para-position of chlorobenzene will increase rate of aromatic nucleophilic

substitution due to stable intermediate. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
