Question

Why para nitrophenol is more acidic than meta nitrophenol?

Answer 1

$\huge{Hey Mate!!!}$

☆☞ Here is ur answer ☜☆

✔✔ Meta nitrophenol is the weakest in terms of acidity.

✔✔ Now, in ortho nitrophenol, intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the adjacent hydroxyl and nitro groups significantly affects release of the proton.

✔✔ So, it is a weaker acid compared to para nitrophenol.
