Best Answer

If the acid is a strong acid, it'll break into ions. If the acid is a weak acid, it won't break up.

For instance H2SO4 is a strong acid. In water, It'll break it into 2H+ and SO4 2-

An acid will dissociate it's H+ and whatever anion it was connected to. (ONLY IF IT IS A STRONG ACID!)
