Which among the following is strongest acid?
- A Chloroacetic acid
- B Fluoroacetic acid
- C Bromoacetic acid
- D Iodoacetic acid
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Fluoroacetic acid
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Acidic strength \(\propto-\) I power \(\propto \frac{1}{+ \text { I power }}\) Order of -I power in halogen is \((-\mathrm{F})-\mathrm{Cl}>-\mathrm{Br}>-\mathrm{I})\)
Thus Flouro acetic acid is strongest acid.
Thus Flouro acetic acid is strongest acid.
