MHT CET · Chemistry · General Organic Chemistry
The strongest acid is
- A acetic acid
- B trichloroacetic acid
- C dichloroacetic acid
- D monochloroacetic acid
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) trichloroacetic acid
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Since, chloro group has \(-I\) effect. Due to which greater the number of electron withdrawing atoms (halogens), stronger will be the acid.
