Answer:

,➡️HCl liberates more H+ ions while in contacts with water as compared to acetic acid so HCl is a strong acid but Acetic acid is a weak acid.

➡️Even the concentration of hydrogen ions lowers the pH.

➡️Generally, Hydrochloric acid is considered as a strong acid and ethanoic acid is a weak acid.

▶️Because the HCl completely dissociates into H+ and Cl- ions. The reason being that it is an ionic inorganic substance.

▶️While acetic acid does not dissociates upto a level. Then it maintains an equilibrium between its dissociated state and undissociated state. Its dissociation is also not very fast as HCl.

Hope it helps you
