Answer:

Number of hydrogen ions

Step-by-step explanation:

HCl is a strong acid because it has more number of hydrogen ions whereas acetic acid contains less number of hydrogen ions so its a weak acid , it can be varied by changing number of hydrogen ions in them . A strong acid is one which ionises either completely or almost completely in an aqueous medium.
