Concentration deals with how much you have dissolved in the solution you are using, eg you could have concentrated sulphuric acid 5 moldm-3 or dilute 0.5 moldm-3. Strength in chemistry means how much it will dissociate. So H2SO4 is a strong acid and completely dissociates, so one mole of acid will release two moles of H+. Ethanoic acid is a weak acid and would only release a small number of protons. Acid strength is shown in numbers called the dissociation constant Ka which you can look up in data tables.

What type of a liquid has a pH of 1?
pH scale is based on 0-14 scale. 0-6 is acidic with 0 being strong acid, 7 is neutral and 8-14 is basic. Concentrated sulfuric acid has pH of one.
How strong is a sulphric acid on the pH scale?
pH is not a measure of how strong an acid is, it is a measure of hydrogen ions (H+) in a solution of water. It depends on both the strength of an acid and how concentrated it is (how much is dissolved in a given about of water).
Chemical that is corrosive has a sour taste and pH less than 7?
Any organic, dilute (but strong enough to corrode some metals), non-toxic (and edible) acid, like Acetic acid, Citric acid, Tartaric acid, etc.a strong and concentrated organic acid, like concentrated acetic acid
What is the difference between the reactions of concentrated hydrochloric acid and dilute hydrochloric acid with magnesium?
Concentrated hydrochloric acid is more reactive than dilute hydrochloric acid. When concentrated hydrochloric acid reacts with magnesium, it produces magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas more quickly and vigorously compared to when dilute hydrochloric acid reacts with magnesium. This is due to the higher concentration of hydrogen ions in concentrated hydrochloric acid, leading to a faster and more intense reaction.
What are some examples of concentrated solutions?
Examples: - concentrated solution of sulfuric acid - concentrated solution of nitric acid - concentrated solution of ethanol - concentrated solution of sugar (syrup) - concentrated solution of table salt
Distinguish between dilute acid or base and concentrated acid or base?

Is a concentrated acid always a strong acid?
a strong acid like HF, H2SO4...are stronger when they are concentrated, weaker acids are weak even they are concentrated
Is 5m HCl a concentrated weak acid?
No it's a concentrated STRONG acid
Is a water solution of a strong acid always concentrated?
a water solution of a strong acid is what?
Difference between strong acid and concentrated acid?
An acid is a substance that breaks into water to produce hydrogen ions (H+) and some other, negative ion. A strong acid is and acid that completely breaks apart into ions. (In a weak acid, only some of it breaks apart). Nitric acid is a strong acid while acetic acid is weak. A concentrated acid is one that is nearly pure. Usually 90% pure or more. So 95% nitric acid is a concentrated strong acid, while 95% acetic acid is a concentrated weak acid. Acids are usually sold dissolved in water in a low concentration. For example, vinegar is 5% acetic acid. Hydrochloric acid, another strong acid, is often sold in a 37% concentration.
What is the difference between a concentrated acid and strong acid?
Concentrated acid means there's a lot of it; that is, a high concentration. By convention, "concentrated" means "straight out of the stock bottle," for some acids this is nearly pure and for others it's not (phosphoric acid is typically supplied as a solution that's about 70% w/w phosphoric acid, for example). Lab bottles labeled "dilute" usually contain a 6M solution unless otherwise specified. Strong acid means that it fully dissociates in water (at least the first proton, for multiprotic acids). Strong/weak and concentrated/dilute are completely different scales that have nothing to do with each other. * 18.3M sulfuric acid is strong and concentrated * 6M sulfuric acid is strong and dilute * Glacial acetic acid is weak and concentrated * 6M acetic acid is weak and dilute
How does the difference between a concentrated acid and a diluted acid affects the hazards of the solution?
A concentrated acid is more dangerous.
Is Concentrated hydrochloric Acid a weekly or a strongly Acid?
Concentrated HCl acid is a very strong acid. Note the word 'concentrated'. What does it mean? Concentrated really means that the amount of hydrogen ions in it is very high. The strength of an acid depends upon the amount of hydrogen ions present. If the ions are more, then it is a concentrated acid and if the hydrogen ions are less, then it is a weak acid. As it is strong, handle it cautiously or may cause burns. I believe this satisfies your question.
What is an example of a concentrated solution?
Drinking squash, concentrated vegetable boullion (stock), some fruit juices are concentrated then diluted again... basically anything that has been boiled to remove the water content is "concentrated".
Why is a concentrated acid not strong?
strong acids and bases dissociate completely; weak acids and bases dissociate only partially. In contrast, the term dilute and concentrated are used to indicate the consentration of a solution, which is the amount of acid or base dissolved in the solution. It is possible to have dilute solutions of strong acids and bases and concentrated solutions of weak acids and bases.
What is the difference between dilutes and concentrated acid's?
diluted acid is less concentrated i.e. it is mixed with water and a less harmful(like sulphuric acid.) whereas concentrated acid is in its original form...
What is the chemical equation between concentrated nitric acid and galactose?
