In the process of formation of nitronium ion, nitric acid acts as
- A a base
- B an acid
- C a catalyst
- D a solvent
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) a base
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In the nitration, nitronium ion is synthesised from \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\) and \(\mathrm{HNO}_3\) According to acid-base theory \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\) act as acid and \(\mathrm{HNO}_3\) act as base.
