Single Choice

The decreasing order of $$ pK_a $$ value of the following is:

AIII>I>II
BII>I>III
Correct Answer
CI>III>II
DI>II=III

Solution

Stabler the $$C_B$$, stronger is the acidic strength (lower $$pK_a$$).

Therefore, the decreasing $$pK_a$$ value, (II) > (I) > (III). {Option (B) is correct}
