AP EAMCET · Chemistry · Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
The most acidic carboxylic acid is
- C \(\mathrm{HCOOH}\)
- D \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{HCOOH}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The acidity of carboxylic acids increases with the number and strength of electron-withdrawing groups. Order of acidity: \(\mathrm{CCl}_3\mathrm{COOH} > \mathrm{CHCl}_2\mathrm{COOH} > \mathrm{HCOOH} > \mathrm{CH}_3\mathrm{COOH}\). The most acidic carboxylic acid is .
