The hydrogen halides (HF,HCl,HBr,and HI)are all polar molecules.The strength of the acid each forms in water is based on which of the following?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The strength of the acid formed by hydrogen halides in water is influenced by both the strength of the bond and the size of the molecule. Stronger bonds are harder to dissociate, making the acid weaker, while larger molecules tend to form stronger acids due to weaker bond strength, facilitating easier dissociation in water.
