A. solution of hydrochloric acid at equilibrium will have a greater concentration of solute than a solution of acetic acid at equilibrium.


B.The dissociation constant for hydrochloric acid is greater than the dissociation constant for acetic acid.

C. If the initial concentration of each acid is the same, then acetic acid will produce more H3O+ ions than hydrochloric acid.

D.The pH of a solution of hydrochloric acid must be less than the pH of a solution of acetic acid.


I think it's A but I don't know

I will give 100 points for the right answer.

Answer:

The dissociation constant for hydrochloric acid is greater than the dissociation constant for acetic acid

Explanation:

answer is correct

The dissociation constant for hydrochloric acid is greater than the dissociation constant for acetic acid.

The dissociation constant shows the extent of dissociation of an acid in solution. A strong acid completely dissociates in solution while a weak acid only partially dissociates in solution.

Since the dissociation constant shows the extent of dissociation of an acid in solution, it follows that hydrochloric acid which is a strong acid will have a  greater than the dissociation constant than acetic acid which is a weak acid and only partially dissociates.
