Organic acids are weak because they do not give OH - ions when dissolved in water.
True organic acids are weak acids but alpha substituted acids may be strong as 'trichloric acetic acid is a very strong acid.
As with all organic acids, it is weak.
curd ..which contains lactic acid is an organic acids and as a matter of fact..all organic acids are weak
Basically the two types are 1- organic acids and 2- inorganic or mineral acids, organic are weak acids while mineral acids are usually strong acids.
No, like all organic acids acetic acid is weak.

No, like other organic acids it is weak.

Acids can be classified as inorganic acids(eg.HCL) versus organic acids(carbolic acid).Acids can be classified as weak(eg.acetic acid) versus strong acids(eg.nitric acid).Alkalis can be classified as weak versus strong.

Electrolyte strength tell how well the acid conducts electricity. Formic acids are not strong electrolytes but rather very weak ones.
An acid is considered 'weak' or 'strong' regardless of concentration or dilution. An acid's strength is determined by how easily the H+ ions disassociate in an aqueous solution. Strong acids like HCl do this readily, and are considered strong, even when heavily diluted. Organic acids like Citric Acid tend to be 'weak' acids, and are considered 'weak' even when concentrated.
Weak acids have a larger value of pKa than strong acids
Lowest pH, strong acids, then weak acids, then salts of strong acids and strong bases, then salts of weak acids and strong bases, then weak bases, then strong bases. All very confusing!
acids are of types.....concentrated acids are strong.
