        Arrange the following in decreasing order of their acidic strength and give reason for your answer.

    Answer:

                         Since -I-effect of F is much stronger than that of Cl, therefore, is a stronger acid than . Further,  group has a weak -I-effect though much weaker than those of F and Cl, therefore,  is a stronger acid than  but weaker than and . Now is a much stronger acid than  because ion left after the loss of a proton is stabilized by resonance but no such stabilization is. possible for ion (obtained after loss of a proton from ). Thus, the overall, acidic strength decreases in the order:
