The inductive effect (-I effect) is the electron-withdrawing tendency of electronegative atoms that stabilizes the conjugate base, thereby increasing acidic strength; stronger -I effect leads to higher acidity, while electron-donating groups (+I effect) decrease acidity and increase basicity.

Inductive Effect + Acidic Strength | Most Expected NEET Re-Exam 2026 Question #chemistrycrashcourseAdded:
Hi everyone in this class we are going to study about induct okay it's known as plus right I hope you know about co and one okay there is a consider molecule of a and there are two electrons between a and if b is more electro negative than a it will attract this electron towards itself so b become partially negative become partially positive this is known as polarization this effect is known as inductive okay in case electron elect donating groups are there that will crisis plus I effect electron withdrawing groups are the minus I effect decreasing order of minus effect. So these are the groups are known as electron withdrawing nature due to highly electrogative atom attached in that group. The minus I effect increases acidic and these are the electron donating especially al tertiary alkal secondary secondary alkal primary methane and dutrium hydrogen. These are known as electron donating groups it will decrease the acidic character and increase the basic. Consider this question asking for need. Okay, there are four compounds are given. Among these four, okay, phenol is a common.
So, leave the phenol from the options you can easily choose. Okay, C and D electron donating groups. So, it will increase it will increase the basic character. C and D are not options.
Okay, we have NO2 and OC3. So, in previous slide we discussed very clearly NO2 is more electron withdrawing nature than O. So, option is so try to find answer for this question. Okay, this question also already made. Thank you.
We'll discuss more topics in upcoming classes.
