The nitration of a mixture containing benzene and t-butylbenzene in equal molar quantities gives products and quantities as follows; Nitrobenzene 0.740 g 0-nitro-t-butylbenzene 1.970 g m-nitro-t-butylbenzene 1.430 g p-nitro-t-butylbenzene 13.45 g 1. Calculate the partial rate factor for o-, m- and p- building sites of t-butylbenzene. 2. Can the value of the partial rate obtained in Question 1 is used in other reaction such as the bromination of t-butylbenzene.
