Write the chemical reaction and name the necessary reagents for an efficient synthesis of m-nitrobenzoic acid from toluene. the process may involve multiple stages. explain in less than 100 words why such a reaction is used and why such reagents are necessary

In the first step you must oxidize toluene to benzoic acid and then with a mixture of sulfuric and nitric acids you will add nitro group in metha position.

Explanation:

The oxidation of toluene to benzoic acid could be made with KMNO₄. Benzoic acid is metha director. Thus, a addition of H₂SO₄ and HNO₃ will produce the final m-nitrobenzoic acid.

The complete mechanism is in the picture.

I hope it helps!

answer: any goods being imported from another country may be subject to issued by the federal government are tariffs

explanation:  

tariffs are a tax on anything that are imported from abroad. government use them to protect and boost their local industries and the thought is that they encourage consumers to buy local instead of importing and they will hope will protect jobs and economy in the country that implements them
