Explanation:

H2SO3 is more acid than H2TeO3. Since S is more electronegative than Te is. In H2SO3, thus, dissociation of H+ would be smoother.

So, H2SO3's got high Ka.

HCH3SO2 is more acid than HCH3CO2. Since S is more electronegative than C. So, HCH3SO2 is a high Ka.

HClO2 is more acid than HClO. Since in HClO2, after the donation of H+ ion, the negative charge is set by two oxygen atoms, while in HClO, only one oxygen atom stabilizes the negative charge.

So, HClO2 is a high Ka
