Arrange the following compounds in the increasing of their acid strength :
`(I ) (a) CH_3 CH_2 CH (Br ) COOH (b ) CH_3 CH (Br) CH_2 COOH ( c ) (CH_3)_2 CHCOOH , (d) CH_3CH_2 COOH`
`(ii ) (a) Benzonic acid ( b ) p-nitrobenzonic acid ( c ) 3,4- dinitrobenzoic acid ( d ) 4- methoxybenzoic acid

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange the given compounds in increasing order of their acid strength, we need to analyze the effect of substituents on the carboxylic acid group (-COOH) in each compound. The presence of electron-withdrawing groups increases acidity, while electron-donating groups decrease acidity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **(i) Compounds:** 1. **(a)** CH₃CH₂CH(Br)COOH 2. **(b)** CH₃CH(Br)CH₂COOH 3. **(c)** (CH₃)₂CHCOOH ...
