Solution
The correct option is BIV>II>III>I The electron density in the aromatic ring will increase with the presence of electron donating group as a substituent.
The order of electron donating power of the substituents given is:−NHCOCH3>−OCOEt>−CH3>−COOEt.
The order is based on the resonance effect of the substituents.
