Strong acids , sometimes called the mineral acids, are Hydrochloric, Sulphuric,, Nitric and Phosphoric acids. There are other mineral acids too. However, do not confuse with Organic (carboxylic/fatty) acids, which are generally weak acids.

Three examples of a strong acid are: HCl (hycdrochloric acid), HNO3 (nitric acid), and H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) All strong acids completely dissociate into its ions in aqueous solution.

What one of the following statements about sulfuric acid is correct sulfuric acid has little effect on metals sulfuric acid is dangerous to living organisms sulfuric acid is a strong oxidizing agent?

dangerous to living organisms


Is a lactic acid a strong acid?

A strong acid is defined as one which disassociates completely in water. Lactic acid does not completely disassociate in water, therefore it is catagorized as a weak acid.


Difference between strong acid and concentrated acid?

An acid is a substance that breaks into water to produce hydrogen ions (H+) and some other, negative ion. A strong acid is and acid that completely breaks apart into ions. (In a weak acid, only some of it breaks apart). Nitric acid is a strong acid while acetic acid is weak. A concentrated acid is one that is nearly pure. Usually 90% pure or more. So 95% nitric acid is a concentrated strong acid, while 95% acetic acid is a concentrated weak acid. Acids are usually sold dissolved in water in a low concentration. For example, vinegar is 5% acetic acid. Hydrochloric acid, another strong acid, is often sold in a 37% concentration.


Why is sulphuric acid said to be a strong acid?

Sulfuric acid is strong, not a weak acid, because at least one H+ (proton) is fully dissociated when in dilute solution.


Is the following sentence true or false A strong acid is safe as long as it's in a dilute solution?

The question is impossible to answer. The terms "strong" and "dilute" are not defined. This is particularly relevant since no matter how strong an acid in its pure form, if sufficiently diluted, there may be one active molecule of the acid in a kilo litre of solution

Salts formed from strong acid and strong base are neither acidic nor basic. Salts formed from strong acid and weak base are slightly acidic. Salts formed from weak acid and strong base are slightly basic.

Is HBr a strong or weak and an acid or base?

Hydrobromic acid has a pKa of −9, making it a stronger acid than hydrochloric acid, but not as strong as hydroiodic acid. Hydrobromic acid is one of the strongest mineral acids known.


Do strong acids always contain oxygen?

No. The haloacids (hydrochloric, hydrobromic, and hydriodic acids) are strong acids that lack oxygen. They have the formulas HCl, HBr, and HI respectively. An example of a strong acid, at about pH 2 would be Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) which is made up of one atom of hydrogen and one atom of chlorine. HCl is a binary (2 atoms) acid (another example would be Hydrosulfuric Acid - H2S) all of which are oxygen-free; however, ternary (3 atoms) acids do contain oxygen. Examples would include Nitric Acid - HNO3 and Chlorous Acid - HClO2 where the O represents oxygen.
