@ tarin
thanx for showing my mistake
ya
m-nitro benzoic acid is stronger acid
as NO2 attracts the electron towards itself, it creates attracts the e from C to which it is attached..................................which indeed attracts the e from other carbon atom and in this way, -COOH becomes a better H repelling group
the same thing happens with fluoro group also
but now another criterion comes into picture
that is the distance
NO2 is more closer to COOH then F
so its -I effect is more
also NO2 is better e attracting group as compared to F
so considering both the facts, m-nitro benzoic acid is a stronger acid
so here the two cases important in deciding the acid strngth are
- distance from COOH
- relative -I effect of NO2 and F
