Q.1. Give reasons for the following:
 
a) p-xylene is susceptible that toluene towards free radical halogenation.
b) Para and meta cresols are obtained in equal amounts when para-bromo toluene is treated with NaOH at high temperatures.
c) Sulphonation is a reversible process
 
Rates assured....

For sulphonation ,the activation energy for the forward and backward reactions are comparable...so the reaction can proceed in any direction....
i dont think there is any need to go deep into the reasons as far as IITJEE syllabus is concerned..

Destiny is no matter of chance.It is a matter of choice.It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

sulphonation of benzene is highly rev.
in sulphonation SO3H gets attached to the ring.
  SO3- is a very good leaving group(stable)and ther4 it leave the ring leading to desulphonation. as here SO3 is the electroplhile

1)p-xylene reacts more easily than toluene becoz the radical so formed during the reaction gets stabilized by hyperconjugation+resonance in p-xylyne(in comparision to only resonace in toluene)
