    The correct decreasing order of \[p{{K}_{a}}\] value is

    A) II>IV>I>III

    B) IV>II>III>I

    C) III>II>IV>I

    D) IV>I>II>III

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Weaker acids have higher \[p{{K}_{a}}\]. \[-OC{{H}_{3}}\]at mete-position exerts only-l effect, hence increases the acidity. -l effect order: \[-N{{O}_{2}}>-OC{{H}_{3}}>-Cl\] - \[C{{H}_{3}}\]has + l effect. So, order is [a].
