Question

The increasing order of the acidity of the following carboxylic acids is : (A) I < III < II < IV (B) IV < II < III < I (C) II < IV < III < I (D) III < II < IV < I

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Carboxylic acid having electron withdrawing substituents like - NO 2 and - Cl increases the acidity whereas electron donating substituents like - OH and - CH y decreases the acidity. Hence, increasing order of acidity is 11 I< II < TV <1.

Q. The increasing order of the acidity of the following carboxylic acids is :

I < III < II < IV

IV < II < III < I

II < IV < III < I

III < II < IV < I

Carboxylic acid having electron withdrawing substituents like $- N O_{2}$ and $- Cl$ increases the acidity whereas electron donating substituents like - OH and $- C H_{y}$ decreases the acidity. Hence, increasing order of acidity is $11 I < II < T V < 1$ .

Q. The increasing order of the acidity of the following carboxylic acids is :

II < IV < III < I

III < II < IV < I

Carboxylic acid having electron withdrawing substituents like −NO2​ and −Cl increases the acidity whereas electron donating substituents like - OH and −CHy​ decreases the acidity. Hence, increasing order of acidity is 11I<II<TV<1.

Carboxylic acid having electron withdrawing substituents like $- N O_{2}$ and $- Cl$ increases the acidity whereas electron donating substituents like - OH and $- C H_{y}$ decreases the acidity. Hence, increasing order of acidity is $11 I < II < T V < 1$ .
