range the compounds in each group in order of least to greatest: BrCh2COOH, CH2COOH,CH3CH2CH2OH

OpenStudy (mitu12):

@aaronq

OpenStudy (aaronq):

in terms of what?

OpenStudy (mitu12):

in terms of acidity

OpenStudy (aaronq):

carboxylic acids>alcohols then you have to decide how Br affects it, think inductive effects |dw:1410721377746:dw|

OpenStudy (mitu12):

i dont understand

OpenStudy (mitu12):

@aaronq

OpenStudy (aaronq):

How far into organic chemistry are you?

OpenStudy (mitu12):

acid and bases

OpenStudy (aaronq):

i mean, is it college or high school?

OpenStudy (mitu12):

college

OpenStudy (anonymous):

CH2COOH is an radical or omit an atom?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

so you must've come across the inductive effect. How does Br behave, as an e density donor or and e density acceptor?

OpenStudy (mitu12):

radical

OpenStudy (anonymous):

radicals are unstable compounds you cant investigate their acidity or compare them with other molecules.

OpenStudy (mitu12):

i think that CH3CH2COOH is first then CH3CH2CH2OH then BrCH2COOH

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are college student.right?

OpenStudy (mitu12):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

PLZ review "acids and bases" chapter in your general chemistry or organic chemistry books.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you must learn basic concepts .

OpenStudy (mitu12):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which book your instructor teach you?

OpenStudy (mitu12):

ill just figure it out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright.

OpenStudy (aaronq):

are you sure CH2COOH is supposed to be a radical? it doesnt make sense to give you a radical. I think you made a copying error
