The correct order of decreasing acidity of the following aliphatic acids is:
1. \(\small {\mathrm{HCOOH}>\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}> \left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{CHCOOH} }\)
\(\small {> \left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{CCOOH}} \)
2. \(\small {\mathrm{HCOOH}>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{CCOOH}> \left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{CHCOOH}}\)
\( \small{ > \mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}} \)
3. \(\small { \left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{CCOOH}>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{CHCOOH}> \mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}}\)
\(\small {>\mathrm{HCOOH}} \)
4. \(\small {\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{CHCOOH}> \left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3\mathrm{CCOOH} }\)
\(\small {>\mathrm{HCOOH}} \)
