Short Answer TypeArrange the following in increasing order of acidity and name the property which decides this order :
(i) HCOOH ,CH3 COOH, CH2Cl COOH.
(ii) CH3COOH, CH3OH, C6H5OH.
(i) HCOOH, CH3COOH, CH2ClCOOH
Increasing order of acidic character
HCOOH < CH3COOH < CH2Cl —COOH
It is decided by the inductive effect.
(ii) CH3COOH, CH3OH, C6H5OH.
Increasing order of acidic character
CH3OH < CH3COOH < C6H5OH
It is decided by the inductive and mesomeric effect.
