| The correct order of increasing acid strength of the compounds |
| [A] \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{O}_{2}}H\] |
| [B] \[MeOC{{H}_{2}}C{{O}_{2}}H\] |
| [C] \[C{{F}_{3}}C{{O}_{2}}H\] |
 |
A) \[D<A<B<C\]
B) \[A<D<B<C\]
C) \[B<D<A<C\]
D) \[D<A<C<B\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a] The correct order of increasing acid strength \[C{{F}_{3}}.COOH>MeOC{{H}_{2}}COOH>\]\[C{{H}_{3}}COOH>{{(Me)}_{2}}CH.COOH\] Electron withdrawing groups increase the acid strength and electron donating groups decrease the acid strength.
