give reason why trichloro acetic acid has more acidic character than monochloro acid

answered-by-expert Expert Answer
 In trichloroacetic acid there are 3 electron-withdrawing group(Cl) which draw electron away from the carboxyl end of the molecule, creating a partial positive charge on the carboxyl group and decreases the charge density on O−H bond and allowing easier removal of the positively charged Hydrogen ion, H + than acetic acid.
