Re: Relative Acidity
It is more stable when it is less likely to attract a proton and stop being a conjugate base.

Re: Relative Acidity
The more polarizable an anion, the more stable it is, so the more electronegative an atom, the more stable the anion.

Re: Relative Acidity
An anion is more stable when it has a higher electronegativity and thus attracts more electrons. This means an anion that is more polarizable is also more stable.
Re: Relative Acidity
Higher electronegativity means stronger attraction, which leads to more polarized and more stable.
