..........★★★Hcl is a strong acid becoz it contains more number of hydrogen ions when compare to acetic acid which has fewer number of hydrogen ions so it is a weak acid. It will change by changing the hydrogen ions.
This is because it more readily gives up protons [H+]. Acetic acid deprotonates via a reversible reaction so at any given time there will be less H+ been give off as compared to HCl.
HCl → H+ + Cl-
CH3COOH ↔ CH3COO + H+
Remember it's the number of protons that determine the strength of the acidity.★★★.........
