A) The larger size of ketone group helps to stabilize the conjugate base
B) The ketone group exert a large inductive effect in conjugate base of A
C) The ketone group allows for resonance delocalisation of the charge in conjugate base
D) The OH oxygen in A is more electronegative than the OH oxygen in B
