The strongest acid among the following is
- A acetic acid
- B acrylic acid
- C benzoic acid
- D propionic acid
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) benzoic acid
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Acidity depends on stability of the conjugate base, and also due to inductive effect. Longer hydrocarbon chain would push more electrons towards the carboxylic group and release of proton \(\left(\mathrm{H}^{+}\right)\)would be difficult and thus, benzoic acid is most strong.
