What happens when \[\ce{CH3 - Br}\] is treated with KCN?
Chlorobenzene is extremely less reactive towards a nucleophilic substitution reaction. Give two reasons for the same.
Write the final product(s) in each of the following reactions:
The presence of nitro group (−NO2) at o/p positions increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilic substitution reactions.
How the following conversion can be carried out?
Chlorobenzene to p-nitrophenol
Give reasons:

Write the product formed on reaction of D-glucose with Br2 water.
Write chemical equation in support of your answer.
Out of 
Cl and 
CH2- Cl, which one is more reactive towards nucleophilic substitution reaction and why?
Assertion: Presence of a nitro group at ortho or para position increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilic substitution.
Reason: Nitro group, being an electron-withdrawing group decreases the electron density over the benzene ring.
