ΔGo = -2.303 R T log Keq
The position of the equilibrium is determined by the free energy change, ΔGo.
ΔGo = ΔH - TΔS
ΔGo ΔH Ka is inversely related to ΔH, the potential energy difference between the acid and its conjugate base. The smaller the ΔH, the larger the Ka and the stronger the acid.

Resonance stabilization of the carboxylate ion decreases the ΔH, shifts the ionization in water to the right, increases the Ka, and results in carboxylic acids being stronger acids.

ClCH2COOH 136 x 10-5
Cl2CHCOOH 5,530 x 10-5
Cl3CCOOH 23,200 x 10-5
-Cl is electron withdrawing and delocalizes the negative charge on the carboxylate ion, lowering the PE, decreasing the ΔH, shifting the ionization to the right and increasing acid strength.

Effect of substituent groups on acid strength of benzoic acids?
Electron withdrawing groups will stabilize the anion, decrease the ΔH, shift the ionization to the right, increasing the Ka, increasing acid strength.
Electron donating groups will destabilize the anion, increase the ΔH, shift the ionization in water to the left, decreasing the Ka, decreasing acid strength.
