The strength of an acid increases with electronegativity because higher electronegativity means the atom can more easily attract and hold onto electrons, making it easier for the acid to donate a hydrogen ion (H). This results in a stronger acid.
The strength of an acid is determined by its ability to donate protons (H+ ions) in a solution. The more easily an acid can donate protons, the stronger the acid. This is typically influenced by factors such as bond strength and electronegativity of the atoms in the acid molecule.
Electronegativity
an acid because it is an oxide not a hydroxide (that would be a base)
You cannot change the strength of an acid, but you can change the concentration of an acid. Youn can decrease the concentration of an acid by adding it to water. You can increase the concentration through distillation.
The strength of hydrochloric acid is typically expressed as a concentration percentage. Common concentrations include 20%, 30%, and 37% strength hydrochloric acid.

The strength of the bond.
No. A weaker acid mixed with a stronger acid would dilute the stronger acid. The resulting pH would be in between that of the mixed acids.

All acids consist of some non-metallic element or radical that is combined with hydrogen. There is a quantity called electronegativity which measures the degree to which a given atom or radical attracts electrons. The higher the electronegativity that any given atom or radical has, the stronger the acid it will form when it combines with hydrogen. The highest known electronegativity is 4, which is the electronegativity of fluorine. Therefore, hydrofluoric acid is the stongest acid.
