H2CO3 is a weak acid--you can tell because there is one less H than O. Strong ternary acids have at least 2 less H than O (for instance, H2SO4, HClO3, HClO4). Strong binary acids are made of halogens, except for weak HF (so they are HCl, HBr, HI).

Is soda a weak acid or strong acid?
It is a weak acid (It's carbonic acid)
Is H2CO3 a weak acid or strong?
H2CO3 Carbonic acid is a weak acid because it does not dissociate completely in solution making it a weak electrolyte.
Does soda have a weak acid or strong?
Soda contains the weak acid carbonic acid.
Is carbonic acid a strong or weak electrolyte?
yes - carbonic acid is a week acid. eg Ordinary soda- which is carbon di oxide dissolved in water.This is unstable.
Is CH3NH3 a strong acid or base?
NH3 is a weak base, but H2CO3 ( carbonic acid ) is not a strong acid. It is a weak acid.
Is soda a weak acid or strong acid?
It is a weak acid (It's carbonic acid)

Is CH3NH3 a strong acid or base?
NH3 is a weak base, but H2CO3 ( carbonic acid ) is not a strong acid. It is a weak acid.
Why the carbonate ion is a strong base?
It is the conjugate base of a weak acid (carbonic acid).
What kind of base and acid is carbon dioxide weak or strong?
Dissolved carbon dioxide in water (carbonic acid) is weak acid.
Is the carbonic acid a strong volatile acid?
No. Carbonic acid is never a strong acid.
Is h2s a strong electrolyte?
No, carbonic acid (H2CO3) is a weak acid, as it only partially dissociates in water solution. Thus, it is not a strong electrolyte.
What reaction causes aqueous solutions of alkali metal carbonates to be basic?
They are formed from a weak acid, carbonic acid and a strong base.
Why carbonic acid list in mineral acid if it is weak acid?
Someone should not have placed carbonic acid in the mineral acid list. For your edification though, whether or not an acid is strong or weak has no bearing on whether or not it is a mineral acid or an organic acid. Mineral acid is any acid comprised of one or more inorganic compounds and dissociate into a hydrogen ion and conjugate base.
What is the formulas for Carbonic Acid?
H2CO3 -It's a weak acid.
