Answer

(4) [figure]

Solution

HA + NaHCO3 NaA + H2O + CO2 occurs only when HA is a stronger acid than H2CO3 (pKa 6.4).

(1) Anilinium chloride: C6H5 NH3 is the conjugate acid of the weak base aniline (pKa 4.6) stronger than H2CO3 CO2 evolved.

(2) 4-Nitrobenzoic acid (pKa 3.4): a carboxylic acid, made stronger by the electron-withdrawing -NO2 group CO2 evolved.

(3) Picric acid, 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (pKa 0.4): three -NO2 groups (–R, –I) make it a strong acid CO2 evolved.

(4) 3-Nitrophenol (pKa 8.4): a meta -NO2 group acts only by –I effect, so it is still weaker than H2CO3 no CO2.

Answer: (4)
