Carboxylic acids are more acidic than alcohols
Carboxylic acids have a very large dissociation constant (Ka) value comparing to alcohols, which makes carboxylic acids stronger acids than alcohols.
Chloroacetic acid is stronger acid because of the presence of electron withdrawing group comparing to acetic acid that contains electron donating methyl group.
Increasing the chlorine atoms increases the acidity by increasing the Ka value, dichloroacetic acid is stronger than monochloroacetic acid. And trichloro acetic acid is considered to be the strongest acid between them due to the presence of the three withdrawing chlorine atoms.
