Select the p K_ a value of the strongest acid from the following.
Options
- A2.0
- B4.5
- C1.0
- D3.0
Correct answer
C. 1.0
Step-by-step solution
The acidic strength of an acid increase with ionisation. The value of p K_ a is inversely proportional to ionisation constant ( K _ a ) . The acid with p K_ a value 1.0 is strongest.
