(a) When toluene (methyl benzene) is sulfonated through reaction with concentrated H2SO4 at room temperature, predominantly (~ 95% of total) ortho- and para-substitution occurs. If elevated reaction temperatures (150 – 200°C) and longer reaction times are employed, meta- (chiefly) and para-substitution account for 95% of the products. Provide a rationale for this finding using words and reaction schemes.
