Discuss the stability of an aromatic benzene ring that has other things attached, such as halides or OH groups. Sal's video details the substitution reaction and the behavior of the strong electrophile initiating the reaction. He provides diagrams of the electrophile behavior and relatively stable carbocations. Additionally, the video shows how a ring stabilizes after bonding, which will be very useful for your class.
