MCQ
The correct order of acidic strength is
  • $HF < HCl < HBr < HI$
  • B
    $HCl < HBr < HF < HI$
  • C
    $HBr < HCl < HI < HF$
  • D
    $HI < HBr < HCl < HF$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$HF < HCl < HBr < HI$
a
(a)$HF < HCl < HBr < HCl$
As we go down the group bond energy decreases hence, acidic nature increases.
