Chapter 11: Problem 21
The correct statement(s) about the oxoacids, \(\mathrm{HClO}_{4}\) and \(\mathrm{HClO}\), is(are) [A] The central atom in both \(\mathrm{HClO}_{4}\) and \(\mathrm{HClO}\) is \(s p^{3}\) hybridized [B] \(\mathrm{HClO}_{4}\) is more acidic than \(\mathrm{HClO}\) because of the resonance stabilization of its anion [C] \(\mathrm{HClO}_{4}\) is formed in the reaction between \(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\) [D] The conjugate base of \(\mathrm{HClO}_{4}\) is weaker base than \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)
