What happens when nitrobenzene is heated with concentrated h2so4?
Nitrobenzene is a pretty inert compound. (Remember that is prepared by treating benzene with a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids.). However under forcing conditions in sulfuric acid, it can undergo a sulfonation reaction (especially if the sulfuric acid contains excess SO3.). Since the nitro group is a “meta director”, the product of the sulfonation will be 3-nitrobenzene sulfonic acid.

on the reaction of solid calcium fluoride with sulphuric acid gives the product of solid calcium phosphate and gas hydrogen fluoride as a product.
Reaction:
CaF2 + H2SO4 = CaSO4 +2HF
Thanks !!!
