Strength of Acids and Bases

Postby Marin_Rice_2D » Sun Dec 10, 2023 11:11 am

How do you tell which acid or base is stronger among strong acids and bases? For example, HNO3 and HCl3 are both strong acids but how do you determine which is the stronger acids?

Hi,

A stronger acid will have a weaker H bond. This makes the bond more susceptible to breaking, and the acid more likely to give up its extra H+.
