WHY IS HCL A STRONGER ACID THAN ACETIC ACID? EXPLAIN.

Answered by admin @



HCl liberates more H+ ions while in contacts with water as compared to acetic acid so HCl is a strong acid but Acetic acid is a weak acid.

Even the concentration of hydrogen ions lowers the pH. Generally,

Hydrochloric acid is considered as a strong acid and ethanoic acid is a weak acid.
