Strong acids are acids that dissociate readily from their hydrogen ion(s). Examples include: Strong acids HCl, hydrochloric acid HNO3, nitric acid HI, hydroiodic acid H2SO4, sulfuric acid HBr, hydrobromic acid HClO4, perchloric acid HClO3, chloric acid Weak acids do not dissociate readily from their hydrogen ions. They, therefore, act weakly as an acid. All edible acids are, naturally enough, weak acids.
