MCQ
Chlorobenzene is
  • Less reactive than benzyl chloride
  • B
    More reactive than ethyl bromide
  • C
    Nearly as reactive as methyl chloride
  • D
    More reactive than isopropyl chloride

Answer

Correct option: A.
Less reactive than benzyl chloride
a
Chlorobenzene $(1)$ is less reactive than benzyl chloride $(2)$ In chlorobenzene the lone pairs present on $ Cl$  atom get involved in resonance with $\pi $electrons of benzene due to which $C - Cl$ bond acquires double bond character Hence, reactivity decreases.
