The correct acidic order of the following is
- AI > II > III
- BIII > I > II
- CII > III > I
- DI > III > II
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
Presence of electron withdrawing groups (– NO2, –X, – CN) increase the acidity of phenols while the presence of electron releasing groups (– NH2, – CH3) decrease the acidity of phenols. This explains the following order of acidity.
p-nitrophenol > phenol > p-cresol.
