False?

false

and ans. is true.....it is 100% correct..........can u guess why!!!!!!!!

if not tell i will reveal..............the fact!!!!!

I thought the reason was not true. Can u explain it ?

i feel that here one point should be noted............

+I is responsible for lesser stability of acetate ion......right!!!!!!!
but it does not have any role for formate ion........for formate ion we have just one thing resonance stabilization........so.............

wat do we conclude :
+I in acetate ion makes it lesser stable

or putting it differently,

as the statement given in ques.
