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.

HERE IS THE ANSWER ✌

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.
