Q. In the conversion of p-nitrofluoro benzene to p-nitroanisole, intermediate X is involved.
The true statements about the intermediate X is/are
(I) the intermediate is aromatic.
(II) the intermediate is resonance stabilized anion.
(III) electron withdrawing group on the benzene ring stabilize the intermediate.

Haloalkanes and Haloarenes

Solution:

X is resonance stabilized anion. An electron withdrawing $-NO_{2}$ group also stabilizes it.
