WBJEE · Chemistry · Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Arrange the following compounds in order of their increasing acid strength

- A \(I \lt I I \lt I I I \lt I V\)
- B \(I V \lt I I I \lt I I \lt I\)
- C \(I \lt I V \lt I I \lt I I I\)
- D \(I I \lt I \lt I I I \lt I V\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(I \lt I V \lt I I \lt I I I\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
As distance decreases -l effect increases, thus acidic strength increases.
