Question

Select all of the correct statements about the relative acid strengths of pairs of acids from the choices below. HCl is a stronger acid than H2S because Cl is more electronegative than S. HC2O4- is a stronger acid than H2C2O4 because it has more charge (is more unstable). NH3 is a stronger acid than HF because N is larger than F. PH3 is a stronger acid than NH3 because P atoms are larger than N atoms. H2SO4 is a stronger acid than HClO4 because S is larger than Cl. H2S is a stronger acid than H2Se because S is more electronegative than Se.

Explanation / Answer

HCl is a stronger acid than H2S because Cl is more electronegative than S

PH3 is a stronger acid than NH3 because P atoms are larger than N atoms.
