So I've attached a picture of the question from Qvault and after reading their explanation, I still don't quite understand why the correct answer is right.
Here's what I was thinking for this question:
-Using Chad's C.A.R.D.I.O mnemonic, I thought answer choice C was correct because it follows the "A" in CARDIO. In other words, it is the largest atom and therefore the weakest base. Because it is the weakest base, it will be the strongest acid. (The rule of size takes precedence over electronegativity right?)
Someone please help!
