The strength of an acid is determined by how easily they give up their hydrogen ion, if they give it up easily they are strong acids, if they release the hydrogen ion slowly they are weak.

Are concentrated acids weaker than diluted acids?

No.


Are stronger acids more stable compared to weaker acids?

No, stronger acids are not more stable compared to weaker acids. In fact, stronger acids are typically more reactive and less stable than weaker acids.


How are stronger acids different than weaker acids because they are more likely to react more vigorously with other substances?

Stronger acids have a higher concentration of hydrogen ions, making them more likely to react vigorously with other substances compared to weaker acids.


When compared to sulfric acid how strong are carboxylic acids?

Carboxylic acids are weaker acids than sulfuric acid. This is because carboxylic acids have two weak acidic hydrogen atoms compared to sulfuric acid's strong acidic hydrogen atoms. This makes sulfuric acid a stronger acid than carboxylic acids.

Which amino acids other than tryptophan display fluorescent emission?

Tyrosine and phenylalanine are two other amino acids that can display fluorescence emission. Tyrosine's fluorescence is typically weaker than tryptophan's, while phenylalanine's fluorescence is even weaker.


Do stronger acids react more slowly than weaker acids?

Stronger acids typically react more quickly than weaker acids because they are more likely to completely dissociate into ions in solution. This high concentration of ions increases the frequency of collisions between reactant molecules, leading to faster reaction rates.


Which acid does not contain H ion?

All acids contain H+ but stronger acids contain more than weaker acids. Alkalis contain OH-. In stronger alkalis there is more OH- and in weaker, there is less. This is why pH7 is neutral - the H+ and the OH- form H2O which is a neutral substance.


What is the strength of organic acids relative to chloro substituted acids?

Organic acids are generally weaker than chloro-substituted acids. The presence of chlorine atoms can enhance the acidity of the compound by stabilizing the conjugate base through inductive effects. This leads to stronger acid properties in chloro-substituted acids compared to organic acids.

Would you consider hydroiodic acid to be a stronger or a weaker than hydrochloric acid?

Both are strong acids (this means stronger than H3O+) but HI is stronger than HCl.


How do the strengths of organic acids compare with the strengths of most inorganic acids?

Acids, like all chemical compounds, are classified as either organic or inorganic. Organic acids occur in, or can be produced from, animal and vegetable matter. In addition to hydrogen, organic acids always contain carbon and at least one other element. The strength of each acid depends on the type. There are many different acids with a large variety of strengths.
