Question
Arrange the following compounds in decreasing order of acidity.
\[\ce{H2O, ROH, HC ≡ CH}\]
Advertisements
Solution
The decreasing order of the acidity of the given compounds:
\[\ce{H2O > ROH > HC ≡ CH}\]
\[\ce{HC ≡ CH}\] is less acidic because the carbon atoms here is sp hybridized, so the electron density is higher on the carbon atom.

Assertion: p-nitrophenol is more acidic than phenol.
Reason: Nitro group helps in the stabilisation of the phenoxide ion by dispersal of negative charge due to resonance.
Assertion: Phenol forms 2, 4, 6 – tribromophenol on treatment with \[\ce{Br2}\] in carbon disulphide at 273 K.
Reason: Bromine polarises in carbon disulphide.
