Why Salysilic acid is stronger than benzoic acid?
In salicylic acid the hydrogen atom in OH group have a tendency to form hydrogen bonding with oxygen atom in the COO - group thus leaving the H+ ion freely available. In case of ortho methoxy benzoic acid, the possibility of hydrogen bonding is avoided by the presence of strong -CH3 group. Hence salicylic acid is stronger than ortho methoxy benzoic acid.
