Ascending acidity order of the following H atom is:
- a✓
C < D < B < A
- b
A < B < C < D
- c
A < B < D < C
- d
D < C < B < A
C < D < B < A
Step 1: Acidic Strength and Hybridization
Acidic strength increases with the -character of the hybridized carbon atom.
- ( carbon, 50% -character)
- ( carbon, 33% -character)
- ( carbon, 25% -character)
Step 2: Conclusion Since an carbon is most electronegative, it holds the negative charge in the conjugate base most effectively. Thus, order is: .
