Carboxylic acids, \(\mathrm{RCOOH}\), furnish \(\mathrm{H}^{+}\) ions to water forming \(\mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{+}\)and carboxylate ions, \({\rm{RCO}}{{\rm{O}}^{\rm{ - }}}\). The major reason for this acidic behaviour is that
1 The carboxylate ion is stabilised by solvation with \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)
2 The carboxylic acid is stabilised by resonance
3 The carboxylic ion is stabilised by resonance
4 The carboxylic ion is more resonance stabilised than the unionised carboxylic acid

The correct order of increasing acidic strength is
Phenol is more stable than alcohol due to formation of more stable conjugate base after removal of \(\mathrm{H}^{+}\) from phenol. Whereas carboxylic acid is more acidic than phenol due to formation of more stable conjugate base after removal of \(\mathrm{H}^{+}\) as compared to phenol. Chloroacetic acid is more acidic than acetic acid due to the presence of electron withdrawing chlorine group attached to \(\alpha\)-carbon of carboxylic acid.
