B

`(II)gt(IV)gt(I)gt(III)gt(V)`

C

`(IV)gt(V)gt(III)gt(II)gt(I)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
It is the correct order of decreasing acidic strength `-NO_(2)` group being electron withdrawing in nature, increasing acidic strenght. Its effect is more pronounced at the para position than at the meta position. Similarly `-OCH_(3)` group is electron releasing in nature and decreases acidic strength. its effect is more pronounced at teh para position as compared to meta position.
