Choose the weakest add among the following

F—CH2—COOH
CH3—COOH
A.
(CH3)2CH—COOH
The acidity of carboxylic acids depends upon the nature of the aikyl group attached to -COOH. The presence of an electron-withdrawing (-I effect) group weakens the O-H bond in the acid and increases the acidity, while the presence of an electron releasing ( + I effect) group strengthens the O-H bond of acid and thus, decreases the acidity. Thus, the weakest acid is,
CH3—(CH)CH3—COOH
(2-Methylpropanoic acid)
