Evidence boundary

This page solves Q4 of the UT Austin CH305 Spring 2020 Exam 1 master version using its five option groups. The official key selects (a). The seven-acid convention explicitly includes HClO₃; the answer does not substitute a six-acid list. The discussion uses introductory aqueous acid strength and distinguishes sulfuric acid's first and second ionizations.
