Draw the conjugate base form of each acid listed below, then rank the acids in order or decreasing acidity (1 = most acidic).
Explain your reasoning.
Perchlorate (ClO4-) has the most resonance forms and therefore has the most electron delocalization, so it is the most stable and weakest base, which makes its conjugate acid (HClO4) the strongest acid.
