What are the solution properties between HCL and hc2h3o2?

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a strong acid, while acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is a weaker acid. In solution, HCl will dissociate completely into H+ and Cl- ions, while HC2H3O2 will only partially dissociate. This results in a higher concentration of H+ ions in HCl solution compared to HC2H3O2 solution at the same concentration.
