Yes but all acids are weak or strong. But keep in mind that they are not dangerous to anyone not even the strongest of them example if a person gets strong acid and applies it on their arm it would take 8 hours for it to destroy the skin only with the rest of,the arm intact. So they are corrosive it just would take a long time for it to really destroy another object. If you wish think about your stomach it contains the second to strongest type of acid in the Ph scale and when you regurgitate you can not see any signs of you floor melting or burned.

Alkali are the opposite of acids. They have a pH of above 7, while acids are below it. However, strong alkali are just as dangerous as strong acids, as they are both corrosive.
