Which of the following compounds is most acidic?

  • Cl-CH2-CH2-OH


A.

The correct order of acidic strength is

Phenols are stronger acids than alcohols because the phenoxide ion left after the release of a proton is stabilised by resonance but the alkoxide ion is not. Further, the electron-withdrawing groups (-NO2) whch stabilise the phenoxide, on by dispersing the negative charge relative to phenol increase the acidic strength of phenols, whereas electron donating group (-CH3) which destabilise the phenoxide ion by intensifying the negative charge relative to phenol tend to decrease the acidity of phenols.
