Which of the following acid has the highest concentration of H+ i

Question

Which of the following acid has the highest concentration of

H^{+}

ions?

Options:

A . 1M hydrochloric acid

B . 1M acetic acid

C . 1M Citric acid

D . 1M propanoic acid

Answer: Option A
:
A
Strong acids release

H^{+}

ions more easily than weaker ones. Hydrochloric acid

(HCl

) is a strong acid, whereas, acetic acid

({CH}_{3} COOH)

, citric acid

(C_{6} H_{8} O_{7})

and propanoic acid

({CH}_{3} {CH}_{2} COOH)

areweak acids.
So, 1M hydrochloric acid will have a higher concentration of

H^{+}

ions than acetic acid and propanoic acid.
