MCQ
Which one of these shows least -I effect:
  • A
    $−\text{OH}_2^+​$
  • B
    $−\text{NH}_3^-​$
  • C
    $−\text{NO}_2​$
  • D
    $−\text{F}$

Answer

  1. $−\text{F}$

Explanation:

Since + charge is more electronegative than neutral atom therefore correct order is

$−\text{OH}_2^+​$​>$−\text{NH}_3^-​$>$−\text{NO}_2​$>$−\text{F}$. Hence least $−\text{I}$ effect is shown by $−\text{F}$.
