Q. Statement 1 : $pH$ of $HCl$ solution is less than that of acetic acid of the some concentration
Statement 2 : In equimolar solution, the number of titrable protons present in $HCl$ is less than that present in acetic acid

Equilibrium

Solution:

(A) is correct because $HCl$ is a strong electrolyte resulting in higher $\left[ H ^{\oplus}\right.$ ] (and less $pH$ ) then acetic acid. (R) is wrong, $HCl$ will produce more protons than acetic acid at same concentration
