Question

Rank the following sets of compunds in decreasing order of acid strength. Concisely explain your reasoning in each case. a. CCl3COOH, CCl2HOOH,CClH2COOH, CH3COOH b. NH4NO3, NH3, KNH2, K2NH

Explanation / Answer

CCl3COOH > CCl2HOOH > CClH2COOH> CH3COOH higher the number of Cl group higher will be the -I effect of the group and hence higher will be the acidity. NH4NO3 > NH3 > K2NH > KNH2 This is due the availability of lonepair, higher he availability of lone pair higher will be the basic nature and lesser will be the acidic character.
