The descending order of acidity for the following carboxylic acid is- A. … B. … C. … D. … E. … Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Option C. The acidity of carboxylic acids is influenced by the electron-withdrawing ability of the groups attached to the carboxylic acid. The stronger the electron-withdrawing ability of the group, the more it stabilizes the carboxylate anion (formed after losing the acidic proton), and hence the stronger the acid.
