Benzene goes through electrophilic substitution to form phenylketones
Conditions required:
Reagent is acid chlorides
AlCl3 catalyst is needed
As the acid chlorides react with the AlCl3 to form RCO+ and AlCl4- and the RCO+ is used as the electrophile
Electrophilic substitution of benzene to form Nitrobenzene
First a curly arrow from the circle in the benzene goes to the NO2+. This causes the bond between the hydrogen and benzene to go to the circle to make it stable. The H+ ion would be used to reform the catalyst

Benzene goes through electrophilic substitution to form nitrobenzene
Conditions required:
HNO3 as a reagent
H2SO4 as a catalyst
HNO3 reacts with the catalyst to form H2NO3+ and HSO4- with the H2NO3+ dissociating into NO2+ and H2O. The electrophile NO2+ is used
