A $\mathrm{H}(\mathrm{ClO}) \mathrm{O}_2$
B $\mathrm{H}(\mathrm{ClO}) \mathrm{O}_3$
C $\mathrm{H}(\mathrm{ClO}) \mathrm{O}$
D $\mathrm{H}(\mathrm{ClO})$

Correct answer

B. $\mathrm{H}(\mathrm{ClO}) \mathrm{O}_3$

Step-by-step solution

We know that acidic strength

\propto

Oxidation number

\therefore

Correct order is

\stackrel{+1}{\mathrm{HClO}} \lt \stackrel{+3}{\mathrm{HClO}_2} \lt \stackrel{+5}{\mathrm{HClO}}_3 \lt \stackrel{+7}{\mathrm{HClO}_4}
