Exam
Nitro Compounds introduces organic compounds containing the nitro functional group. Students study the preparation, nomenclature, physical properties and chemical reactions of nitroalkanes and nitrobenzene. The chapter particularly focuses on reduction reactions and electrophilic substitution reactions of nitrobenzene.
This page covers Nitro Compounds, chapter 16 of 22 in the Class 12 Chemistry syllabus set by the National Examination Board (NEB). 3 important questions for this chapter are available, each with a full solution.
For numerical and derivation-based chapters like this one, working through past NEB questions is usually more useful than re-reading notes alone — try solving each important question above before checking the solution, then compare your working step by step.
