QNEET-2017-Ch-955: NEET 2017 Chemistry - Class 11 NEET-2017-Ch-955 Solution: Which one is the correct order of acidity? \(CH CH > CH_3-C CH…
Which one is the correct order of acidity?
Multiple Choice Options
- A CH _ CH > CH 3 _ C _ CH > CH 2 = CH 2 > CH 3 _ CH 3
- B CH _ CH > CH 2 = CH 2 > CH 3 _ C _ CH > CH 3 _ CH 3
- C CH 3 _ CH 3 > CH 2 = CH 2 > CH 3 _ C _ CH > CH _ CH
- D CH 2 = CH 2 > CH 3 _ CH = CH 2 > CH 3 _ C _ CH > CH _ CH
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Greater the character of C-atom in hydrocarbons,
greater the electronegativity of that carbon and
thus greater the acidic nature of the H attached to
electronegative carbon.
Thus CH _ CH > CH 3 _ C _ CH
> CH 2 = CH 2 > CH 3 _ CH 3
