Question

why trichloroacetic acid is stronger than acetic acid

Answer 1

HCl dissociates completely in water and thus gives more H+ ions whereas acetic acid dissociates partially in water and thus gives less H+ ions. Due to this, HCl is a strong acid than acetic acid.

Answer 2

Hey mate!

Here's your answer!!

An acid is stronger than other acids if it gives more protons readily.

Due to the presence of 3 free chlorine atoms which is also a very good reducing agent that's why trichloroacetic acid is more stronger than acetic acid .
