Please tell me how can we determine more acidic strenght with the help of inductive effect?Is it true that -I effect is directly proportional to acidic strenght so as -I increases acidic strenght increass?which shows more -I effect NH3+ or COOH IT WAS ASKED IN IIT-JEE 2003.pLEASE HELP SOON

It is perfectly correct that acidic strength of the acids is directly related to the electron withdrawing power -I groups.

 As -I power increases acidic strength increases.
