as the stability of intermediate species increases there is increase the reactivity of this chemical reaction for example in the process of dehydration intermediate species is carbocation so reactivity of alcohol in the process of dehydration is 3>2>1.if we consider more example like C₆H₅SO₃H is more acidic than C₆H₅COOH because intermediate C₆H₅SO₃ anion is more stable than C₆H₅COO anion.in case of CHCl₃and CHF₃,CHCl₃is more acidic because after releasing H+, CCl₃ anion is more stable due to vacant orbital resonance which is not possible in intermediate CF₃ anion.
