Question

What is position is more acitic meta or pera in benzoic acid?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence, nitro group on ortho position has higher inductive effect compared to the nitro group on para position. Therefore, more liberation of H+ is causes the acidity of a compound. Hence, , o-nitrobenzoic acid is more acidic compared to p-nitrobenzoic acid.

Answer 2

Answer:

nitro group on ortho position has higher inductive effect compared to the nitro group on para position. Therefore, more liberation of H+ is causes the acidity of a compound. Hence, , o-nitrobenzoic acid is more acidic compared to p-nitrobenzoic acid.
