The weakest acid in the given molecules has to be identified and the reason should be explained. Concept Introduction: Oxoacids have general formula is H n YO m , where Y is non-metallic atom ( C, N, S and Cl ) and n, m are integers. Y is always bonded to one or more OH group. Strength of an acid increases with increasing electronegativity of Y and sometimes strength of an acid increases with increasing number of Oxygen atoms.

The weakest acid in the given molecules has to be identified and the reason should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Oxoacids have general formula is HnYOm, where Y is non-metallic atom (C,N,S and Cl) and n, m are integers. Y is always bonded to one or more OH group. Strength of an acid increases with increasing electronegativity of Y and sometimes strength of an acid increases with increasing number of Oxygen atoms.

Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The weakest acid in given set of the molecule has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
For binary acids, the element present in the same group of periodic table, strength of H-A bond is important to determine an acidity. H-A bond strength decreases down a group because of overlapping between 1s orbital of the Hydrogen atom and more diffusion, larger p orbital of A atom increases the strength of an acid and so decreases with increasing size of the element.
