Values of dissociation constant, $\displaystyle \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}}$ are given as follows :
Correct order of increasing base strength of the base $\displaystyle \mathrm{CN}^{-}, \mathrm{F}^{-}$and $\displaystyle \mathrm{NO}_2^{-}$will be :
| Acid | $\displaystyle \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}}$ |
| HCN | $\displaystyle 6.2 \times 10^{-10}$ |
| HF | $\displaystyle 7.2 \times 10^{-4}$ |
| $\displaystyle \mathrm{HNO}_2$ | $\displaystyle 4.0 \times 10^{-4}$ |
Official answer
(3)
$\displaystyle \mathrm{F}^{-}<\mathrm{NO}_2^{-}<\mathrm{CN}^{-}$
