- $(B), (C), (A), (D)$
- $(D), (C), (B), (A)$
- $(A), (B), (C), (D)$
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
If acid is weak, its conjugate base (nucleophile) is strong and vice versa.
Acidic nature of IV > I > III > II and nucleophilicity of B > C > A > D

Top Questions on reaction mechanism
- Given below are two statements:
Statement I: The dipole moment of R–CN is greater than R–NC and R–NC can undergo hydrolysis under acidic medium to produce R–COOH.
Statement II: R–CN hydrolyses under acidic medium to produce a compound which on treatment with SOCl$_2$, followed by the addition of NH$_3$ gives another compound (X). This compound (X) on treatment with NaOCl/NaOH gives a product, that on treatment with CHCl$_3$/KOH/$\Delta$ produces R–NC.
