Which is more acidic phenol or m-chlorophenol ????

Sainetra Ramesh · Accepted Answer

m chloro phenol will be more acidic since -Cl attached to the
phenol is electron withdrawing, making it more acidic however if
the -Cl was present in the ortho or para position, it would make it
even more acidic ortho more than para :)
