Vedclass · Answer

(D) The acidity of a compound depends on the stability of its conjugate base. $1$. $CH_3OH$ (methanol) has an acidic proton attached to an electronegative oxygen atom,forming a stable methoxide ion $(CH_3O^-)$. $2$. $HC \equiv CH$ (ethyne) has an $sp$ hybridized carbon,but it is less acidic than an alcohol. $3$. $C_6H_6$ (benzene) and $C_2H_6$ (ethane) are extremely weak acids. Therefore,$CH_3OH$ is the strongest acid among the given options.

Which of the following compounds is the strongest acid?
