Answer:

Arrange the following compounds in order of acidity (highest to lowest): H2O, CH3COOH , HCl

A. CH3COOH > HCl > H2O

B. H2O > CH3COOH > HCl

C. HCl > H2O > CH3COOH

D. HCl > CH3COOH > H2O

Explanation:

The given substances are acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, and water.

Since HCl is a strong acid and it undergoes complete ionization.

CH3COOH acetic acid is a weak acid and it undergoes partial dissociation in water.

Pure water is a neutral substance.

Hence, the order of acidity is shown below:

HCl > CH3COOH > H2O.

Among the given options, option D is the correct answer.
