Why nitration of benzene ring is irreversible unlike most of the electrophilc substn reaction?

Jasmesh~\m/â„¢etalhead asked: We know majority of the electrophilc suibstituition reaction are reversible.But during nitration(which is another electro subst reacn) it doesn’t happens).Why is it?

What is the product(s) of a Benzene plus 1-chloro-2-methylpropane plus Aluminum Chloride reaction?

Panda asked: I’ve been given an example of a reaction where benzene reacts with 1-chloro-2-methylpropane and aluminum chloride and I’m a little bit shaky on the outcome. When trying the question my results have been a benzene ring with a methylpropane attached plus HCl, however I’m told there might be other products? Am I on [...]
