Q. The highest electrical conductivity of the following aqueous solutions is of
A) 0.1 M difluoroacetic acid
B) 0.1 M fluoroacetic acid
C) 0.1 M chloroacetic acid
D) 0.1 M acetic acid
Explanation
(a)
Fluoro group causes negative inductive effect increasing ionisation, thus 0.1M difluoroacetic acid has highest electrical conductivity.
