• A. The central atom in both $HCl{O}_4$ and $HClO$ is $s{p}^3$ hybridized
• B. $HCl{O}_4$ is formed in the reaction between $C{l}_2$ and $H_{2}O$
• C. The conjugate base of $HCl{O}_4$ is weaker base than $H_{2}O$
• D. $HCl{O}_4$ is more acidic than $HClO$ because of the resonance stabilization of its anion $HCl{O}_4$ $HClO$

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C), (D)
