प्रश्न
Which acid of the following pair would you expect to be stronger?
F−CH2−COOH or CH3−COOH
Advertisements
उत्तर
Among F−CH2−COOH and CH3−COOH, F−CH2−COOH is stronger due to the presence of the electron-withdrawing group (–F). As fluorine (halogens) is the most electronegative element, electronegativity makes it stronger than acetic acid.
