Detailed Solution

Compound (III) is least acidic because of the presence of electron releasing groups. In conjugate base of compound (I), there is cross resonance because the two double bonds (-C=C and -C=O) and negative charge are in conjugation.

CH3-CH=CH-CO-O-

In conjugate base of compound (II), cross resonance further enhanced because the two double bonds (-C=C and -C=O), lone pairs of O and negative charge are in conjugation.

CH3-O....-CH=CH-COO-

Hence, order becomes I>II>III
