A) \[HOCl\]
B) \[HOCl{{O}_{2}}\]
C) \[HOCl{{O}_{3}}\]
D) \[HOClO\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
: The acid strength increases with the increasing oxidation state of halogens because of the strengthening of chlorine-oxygen bond and weakening of\[O-H\]bond. The increasing acid character of these oxo acids are \[\overset{+1}{\mathop{HClO}}\,<\overset{+3}{\mathop{HCl{{O}_{2}}}}\,<HCl{{O}_{3}}<\overset{+5}{\mathop{HClO4}}\,.\overset{+7}{\mathop{{}}}\,\]
