The electrolytic reduction of nitrobenzene in strongly acidic medium produces:

1. Azoxybenzene
2. Azobenzene
3. Aniline
4. p-Aminophenol

Correct answer: Aniline

Solution

In a strongly acidic medium, the electrolytic reduction of nitrobenzene leads to the formation of aniline as the major product due to the complete reduction of the nitro group (-NO2) to an amino group (-NH2).
