Question

Rank in order of increasing pka

Answer is: (lowest pKa)  B<A<C<D  (highest pKa)

Please explain reasoning.

The image shows four chemical structures labeled as A, B, C, and D: 1. **Structure A**: - A cyclohexanecarboxylic acid. - Contains a cyclohexane ring attached to a carboxylic acid group (COOH). 2. **Structure B**: - Known as benzoic acid. - Features a benzene ring (aromatic) attached to a carboxylic acid group (COOH). 3. **Structure C**: - A derivative of cyclohexane with a methyl group (CH₃) on one of its carbons. - Also has a carboxylic acid group (COOH) attached to the methine carbon next to the methyl group. 4. **Structure D**: - Similar to structure C but instead of a carboxylic acid group, it has an amide group (CONH₂). - Contains a cyclohexane ring with a methyl group (CH₃) on one of the carbons. These structures depict various organic compounds featuring carboxylic acid and amide functional groups.
