D.Amongst (i) to (iv), the strongest acid is (i)
Solution
Structure of
(i) HClO =
(ii) HClO2 =
(iii) HClO3 =
(iv) HClO4 =
(A) The number of Cl = O bonds in (ii) and (iii) together is three
(B) The number of lone pairs of electrons on Cl in (ii) and (iii) together is three
(C) The hybridisation of Cl in (iv) is sp3
(D) Amongst (i) to (iv) the strongest acid is (iv) HClO4
(i) HClO =
(ii) HClO2 =
(iii) HClO3 =
(iv) HClO4 =
(A) The number of Cl = O bonds in (ii) and (iii) together is three
(B) The number of lone pairs of electrons on Cl in (ii) and (iii) together is three
(C) The hybridisation of Cl in (iv) is sp3
(D) Amongst (i) to (iv) the strongest acid is (iv) HClO4
