Which compound is more acidic?
The image displays chemical structures labeled A and B, both featuring aromatic rings with attached hydroxyl (OH) groups and carbonyl (C=O) groups. Here's a detailed description: ### Chemical Structure A: - **Aromatic Ring**: A six-carbon ring with alternating double bonds, known as a benzene ring. - **Hydroxyl Group (OH)**: Attached directly to the benzene ring. - **Carbonyl Group (C=O)**: Attached to the benzene ring via a carbon, forming an acetophenone group. ### Chemical Structure B: - **Aromatic Ring**: Similar to Structure A, featuring a benzene ring with alternating double bonds. - **Hydroxyl Group (OH)**: Attached directly to the benzene ring at an adjacent position to the carbonyl group. - **Carbonyl Group (C=O)**: Also attached via a carbon to the benzene ring, forming a hydroxyacetophenone structure. These structures represent isomers, differing in the position of the hydroxyl group relative to the carbonyl group on the benzene ring. Structure A has the hydroxyl group at the para position, whereas Structure B has it at the ortho position.
