(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The stronger acid has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Acid and its conjugate base: An acid is a species that can lose a proton. When an acid loses a proton (H+), it forms its conjugate base. Neutral acid forms a negatively charged conjugate base, whereas a positively charged acid forms a neutral conjugate base.

Relative acid strength: When acids have protons attached to atoms in similar size (same period elements), the strongest acid in the one with the proton attached to the more electronegative atom.

(b)
