Nitrobenzene on reaction with concentrated at forms:

  1. A
    1,2-Dinitrobenzene
  2. B
    1,3-Dinitrobenzene
  3. C
    1,4-Dinitrobenzene
  4. D
    1,2,4-Trinitrobenzene

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The group is a strongly deactivating group and is meta-directing. When nitrobenzene undergoes further nitration, the new nitro group is directed to the meta position (position 3).Result: 1,3-Dinitrobenzene.
