∙ 7y agoThe strength of an acid is related to the proportion of it which has reacted with water to produce ions. The concentration tells you about how much of the original acid is dissolved in the solution.
A weak acid is one which doesn't ionize fully when it is dissolved in water.Ethanoic acid is a typical weak acid. It reacts with water to produce hydroxonium ions and ethanoate ions, but the back reaction is more successful than the forward one. The ions react very easily to reform the acid and the water.

What is always true of a acid?
An acid always gives up hydrogen ions. Strong acids give them up easier, weak acids don't.
Which statement always accurately describes acids and bases a the conjugate base of a weak acid is a strong base b the conjugate acid of a weak base is a weak acid c strong acids and st?
The conjugate base of a weak acid is always a strong base
Is it possible to have a concentrated solution of a weak acid or base True or False?
True
Is acetic acid a strong electrolyte?
No, acetic acid is always a weak electrolyte.
Is glacial acetic acid a strong electrolyte?
No, acetic acid is always a weak electrolyte.

What is true about the molarity of a weak acid?
The molarity not depend on weak or strong.

Is it possible to have a concentrated solution of a weak acid or base True or False?
True
Is acetic acid a strong electrolyte?
No, acetic acid is always a weak electrolyte.
Is glacial acetic acid a strong electrolyte?
No, acetic acid is always a weak electrolyte.
Are organic acid weak or strong?
True organic acids are weak acids but alpha substituted acids may be strong as 'trichloric acetic acid is a very strong acid.
Is the solution with a pH of 2 a strong or weak base or a strong or weak acid?
pH below 7 always is acid, base has pH above 7.
How weak is acid diffent from dilute acid?
They are pretty much the same. The only difference might be that the weak acid was always weak and the dilute acid used to be stronger and then got watered down, or diluted. But, essentially they can both have the same pH and be called either one.
Is CHOOH a weak acid or a weak base?
The formic acid is a weak 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.
What is the reaction when you add acids and alkali's?
you create a neutral solution -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well it depends actually it doesn't always create a neutral solution. Here's the order: Strong Alkali + Strong Acid = Neutralisation (water + salt) Strong Alkali + Weak Acid = Weak Alkali Weak Alkali + Weak Acid = Neutralisation ( water + salt) Weak Alkali + Strong Acid = Weak Acid Strong Alkali + Strong Acid = Neutralisation (water + salt) Hope it helps! :)
