MCQ
$ClCH_2CH_2OH$ is stronger acid than $CH_3CH_2OH$ because of
  • A
    $-I$ effect of $Cl$ increases negative charge on $O$ atom of alcohol
  • B
    $-I$ effect of $Cl$ disperses negative charge on $O$ atom to produce more stable cation
  • C
    None of these
  • ✓
    $-I$ effect of $Cl$ disperses negative charge on $O$ atom to produce more stable anion
✓

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-I$ effect of $Cl$ disperses negative charge on $O$ atom to produce more stable anion
d
The correct option is $\mathbf{d}$

-I effect of Cl disperses -ve charge on O atom to produce more stable anion

$\mathrm{ClCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{OH}$ is stronger acid than $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{OH}$ due to -1 effect of Cl
