 ANS:

22 How would you account for the following:

(i) The following order of increase in strength of acids:
PH3 < H2S < HCl 2
(ii) The oxidising power of oxoacids of chlorine follows the order:
HClO4 < HClO3 < HClO2 < HClO

ANS: (i) It is because greater the difference in electronegativity, more will be polarity and more will be acidic character.
(ii) It is because HClO is least stable and gives [O] most easily, whereas tendency to give oxygen in HClO 4 is least where the
number of oxygen is maximum and oxidising power is least.
