Among the compounds (i) \(\mathrm{H}-\mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{COOH}\) (ii) \(\mathrm{CH}_2=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{COOH}\) (iii) \(\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{COOH}\) and (iv) \(\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{OH}\) The correct order of acid strength is
- A (i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)
- B (iv) > (iii) > (ii) > (i)
- C (ii) > (i) > (iv) > (iii)
- D (iii) > (ii) > (i) > (iv)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) (i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Carboxylic acids are more acidic than alcohol. As the 's'-character in the \(\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{x}}\) increases, the acidity of carboxylic acid increases.
