To determine the acidic nature of orthoaminophenol, metaminophenol, and paraminophenol, we will analyze the effects of the amino group (NH2) on the phenolic hydroxyl group (OH) in each compound. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Draw the Structures**: - **Orthoaminophenol**: The amino group is attached to the benzene ring adjacent to the hydroxyl group. - **Metaminophenol**: The amino group is attached to the benzene ring one carbon away from the hydroxyl group. - **Paraminophenol**: The amino group is attached to the benzene ring directly opposite the hydroxyl group. ...
