**Ranking the Compounds in Order of Increasing Acidity**Given the compounds below, determine the order of increasing acidity.**Compounds:**- **Compound I:** Consists of a carboxyl group (COOH) with a trifluoromethyl substituent (CF₃) attached to the carbon atom. This compound is labeled as I: \( F_3C-COOH \).- **Compound II:** Contains a carboxyl group (COOH) with a methyl substituent (CH₃) attached to the carbon atom. This compound is labeled as II: \( H_3C-COOH \).- **Compound III:** Comprises a carboxyl group (COOH) with a tribromomethyl substituent (CBr₃) attached to the carbon atom. This compound is labeled as III: \( Br_3C-COOH \).**Options for Ranking:**A) I < III < IIB) III < II < IC) II < III < ID) III < I < IIE) II < I < III**Explanation:**The acidity of carboxylic acids depends on the electron-withdrawing or electron-donating nature of the substituent attached to the carboxyl carbon. Electron-withdrawing groups stabilize the negative charge on the conjugate base, increasing the acid strength, while electron-donating groups decrease the acid strength.- **Compound I (CF₃-COOH)** has a strongly electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group.- **Compound II (CH₃-COOH)** has a weakly electron-donating methyl group.- **Compound III (CBr₃-COOH)** has a strongly electron-withdrawing tribromomethyl group, but less so than the trifluoromethyl group.Therefore, the order of increasing acidity generally follows the electron-withdrawing ability:\[ \text{II} < \text{III} < \text{I} \]**Correct Answer:**C) II < III < I

Select the correct answers: “Ocean acidification is a process that occurs when atmospheric carbon dioxide dissolves in the ocean and is subsequently converted into (methane; carbonic acid; carbonate ions; sodium carbonite) . This then causes the pH of the ocean to (increase; decrease; fractionate; multiply) and become more acidic.”
