Based on their molecular structure, identify the stronger acid from each pair of oxyacids. Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. 1) HI is a stronger acid than H2Te because iodinethan tellurium.
2) H2Te is a stronger acid than H2S because the H-Te bond is.
3) NaH is not acidic because hydrogenthan sodium.
a. has a more negative electron afflity
b. is more electronegative
c. has a larger atomic radius
d. stronger
e. is harder to ionize

1)is more electronegative

2)

3) is more electronegative

Explanation:

1) for the first question, iodine is more electronegative than tellurium hence we naturally expect that HI should be more acidic than H2Te since electronegativities play a role in the acidity of chemical species.

2) the correct option is not listed because the H2Te bond is weaker than the H2S bond. This makes it easier for H2Te to dissociate releasing H^+ , thereby being more acidic than H2S.

3) Hydrogen is more electronegative than sodium hence it cannot be ionized thus NaH is not acidic.
