Its the other way around, hydrochloric acid is an example of a strong acid, whether dilute or otherwise. The strength of an acid is independent of its concentration.

Is a dilute solution weak?
It does not matter whether or not HCl is dilute because either way it's a strong acid. Strong and weak are based on its percentage of ionization whereas diluting affects the concentration of the ions. A dilute solution of HCl is not weak.
Is hydrochlric acid a strong or weak acid?
Hydrochloric acid (HCL) is a strong acid.
Is hydrochloric an example of vinegar?
NO!!! Hydrochloric Acid is a mineral acid. Formula is (HCl) Vinegar is Ethanoic (Acetic) Acid a Carboxylic acid. Formula is (CH3COOH)
Is HCL strong or weak acid or base?
HCl is a strong acid because it almost completely dissociates into H and Cl- ions in solution. It "donates" its H ions to the water. HCl is produced in the stomach, and because it is a strong acid (has a low pH), it helps in the process of digestion by killing bacteria in the food that we consume.
Is 5m HCl a concentrated weak acid?
No it's a concentrated STRONG acid
Is a dilute solution weak?
It does not matter whether or not HCl is dilute because either way it's a strong acid. Strong and weak are based on its percentage of ionization whereas diluting affects the concentration of the ions. A dilute solution of HCl is not weak.
Is HCl a weak base?
HCl is a strong acid, not a base.
Is hydrochlric acid a strong or weak acid?
Hydrochloric acid (HCL) is a strong acid.

Is Hcl strong or weak electrolyte?
yes, hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, so it is a strong electrolyte.
Is 5m HCl a concentrated weak acid?
No it's a concentrated STRONG acid
H2SO3 or HCl the strongest acid?
H2SO3 is a weak acid, pKa=1.8, HCl is strong, pKa<<0
Is dilute HCl a acid or base?
It is an acid.
Difference between hydroflouric acid and hydrochloric acid?
First, HF, is weak, second HCl is strong acid
Why is HCL considered a strong acid?
It is a strong acid because it water it completely dissociates into H+ and Cl- ions. This is due to the covalent bond in HCl being relatively weak.
Is Chlorine strong or weak?
Chlorine is a strong electrolyte - it always completely dissociates in water. HCl (hydrochloric acid) is a strong acid as well, for the same reason.
