What is the product formed when $Cl_2$ reacts with toluene in the presence of $FeCl_3$?

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$ : Chlorine is an electron withdrawing group but it is ortho,para directing in electrophilic aromatic substitution.
Reason $(R)$ : Inductive effect of chlorine destabilises the intermediate carbocation formed during the electrophilic substitution,however due to the more pronounced resonance effect,the halogen stabilises the carbocation at ortho and para positions.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

The reaction shown below is known as:
$2C_6H_5Cl + 2Na \xrightarrow{\text{dry ether}} C_6H_5-C_6H_5 + 2NaCl$

Identify the name of the reaction in which an aryl halide reacts with an alkyl halide and sodium metal in dry ether to produce substituted aromatic compounds.

Which of the following substituents on benzene is ortho-para directing in electrophilic substitution and ortho-para directing in nucleophilic substitution?
