MCQ
What is the main reason for the fact that carboxylic acids can undergo ionization
- AAbsence of $\alpha - $hydrogen
- ✓Resonance stabilisation of the carboxylate ion
- CHigh reactivity of $\alpha - $hydrogen
- DHydrogen bonding
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Resonance stabilisation of the carboxylate ion
b
Carboxylate acids are easily ionized because there is resonance in carbroxylate ion due to $\pi$ - electron shifting so $H ^{+}$get ionised very easily.
