why do HCl l, HNO3 etc., show acidic characters in aqueous solutions while solutions of compounds like alcohol and glucose do not show acidic character?

When HCl or HNO3 are mixed with water then they dissolve in water to form H+ or H3O+ ionswhich shows their acidic character. For example just see the following reactionsWhen alcohols and glucose are mixed with water then they do not dissolve to form ions. Hence they do not show acidic character.

HCl and HNO3... Show acidic nature in aqueous solution... Because they dissociate to produce or to form hydronyum or H+ ion... And the increasing concentration of H+ or hydronium ions leads to the increase in acidic character. .....
On the other hand, alcohols and glucose do not show acidic nature because they do not dissociate to produce hydronium ions... They dissociates to form Hydroxyl ions... And the increasing concentration of hydroxyl ions... Basisty increases......
Hope it helps you....
