Answer:

Here is your...

answer mate ...the partially positive hydrogen on H-Cl is strong enough to break

the H-Cl bond, and the ions dissociate in solution.

halogen

will be the strongest acid

..as the size of iodine is biggest compared to all halogen..

it will be least electronegative and the bond breaking of halogen

bond will be easier.. will be the weakest acid as the polarising ability

of halogen

is the highest

and bond breaking requires a huge amount of energy

Chlorine is larger and has more electrons,

and therefore the H-Cl bond is longer and weaker. In the presence of water,

the electrostatic attractions between

water's partially negative oxygen

.and the partially positive hydrogen on H-Cl is strong enough to break the H-Cl bond, and the ions dissociate in solution.

i hope it helpfull to you
