No, only strong bases do:

weak: B- + H2O <<==--> HB + OH- (more left <<= than right --> )

strong: B- + H2O --->> HB + OH- (completely right ---> )

No. Weak acids ionize partially. Only strong acids/bases ionize completely in solution. Hope that made sense.

Stronger the acid more will it be in giving H+ ion in water but as u told me that is a weak acid so it has less tendency to ionize in a solution.It will completely ionize in solution but it will take much much time to do it

A weak acid is a weak electrolyte and weak electrolytes do not completely dissociate or ionize completely in water but are partially ionized or dissociate incompletely in water.

By definition, weak acids do not fully dissociate in water. Only strong acids completely dissociate in water.

Are strong acids strong electrolyters?

Yes. Strong acids dissociate completely in solution. Hence they are generally strong electrolytes.


Do acids dissolve in bases or do bases dissolve in acids?

They don't dissolve (or more properly, dissociate) completely in water, only partially. Acids or bases that dissociate completely are called strong acids or bases.


What is the relationship of a strong acid and a strong base?

Strong acids dissociate almost completely making H+ ions while strong bases also dissociate completely making OH-


Differentiate between a strong acid and weak acid?

Strong acids dissociate completely in aqueous solution; weak acids do not.


How are acids and basis classified as strong or weak?

According to their dissociation.Strong acids dissociate completely,weak acids partially.


Are strong bases sparingly soluble?

No, strong acids and bases are very soluble (will dissociate completely).


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.


Do weak acids completely dissociate like strong acids but then instantly change to base in water?

Nope. They just don't fully dissociate. The molecules don't break apart completely.


What type of compounds can be electrolysed?

Any compound which can disassociate into ions in solution is an electrolyte. These are most commonly water soluble salts, acids, and bases.


Acids whose molecules dissociate completely into ions in water solutions are?

strong acids like hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid etc


Why are Arrhenius acids strong electrolytes?

Because they dissociate completely in water to produce H+ ions in solution.


What is strong about a strong acid?

strong acids dissociate completely into ions in water. i.e. HCl dissociates into H+ and Cl- ions. Weak acids only dissociate partially, therefore they are in an equilibrium state where there is some acid remaining and some ions in solution.
