Is CHOOH a weak acid or a weak base?
The formic acid is a weak acid.
Why is citric acid a weak acid?
Citric acid is considered to be a weak acid.
An acid that ionizes to only a slight degree in water is a?
A weak acid.
What combinations of compounds will make a buffer when mixed?
In order to have an effective buffer, one needs to have a weak acid or a weak base, and the salt (conjugate) of that weak acid or weak base. Examples would be :weak acid/conjugate base: acetic acid/sodium acetateweak base/conjugate acid: ammonia/ammonium chloride
How you classify the solution as a best buffer solution?
A buffer solution is one involving a weak base/weak acid with its conjugate acid/base. In a buffer solution, the pH must be changed to only a small amount. Thus, any solution with a STRONG acid or a STRONG base is not a successful buffer solution because there would be a relatively large change in the initial pH.
What are some scenarios for a substance being classified as a weak acid?
A way to classify an acid as being weak is to determine how strongly the substance conducts electricity. If the acid or base conducts electricity strongly, it is a strong acid or base. If the acid or base conducts electricity weakly, it is a weak acid or base.
Is CHOOH a weak acid or a weak base?
The formic acid is a weak acid.
Is hypochlorous acid a strong or weak acid?
Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid. It is a fairly weak acid compared to strong acids like hydrochloric acid.
Is citrus acid a weak acid?
Yes it is a weak acid
Why is citric acid a weak acid?
Citric acid is considered to be a weak acid.
Is hypochlorous acid a strong or weak acid?
Hypochlorous 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.
Is NaCl a weak acid?
No, NaCl is neither an acid, weak acid, or a (weak) base. It is considered a salt.
Is MgCl2 a weak or strong acid?
It is a weak acid
Is HSO4- a weak acid?
HSO4- is a weak acid. It is the conjugate base of sulfuric acid (H2SO4), which is a strong acid. However, HSO4- itself is a weak acid and partially dissociates in water.
Acid with a small k value would be a?
weak acid
Is C2H3O2 an strong or weak acid or base?
CH3COOH is a acid. It is a weak acid.
