An element is not an acid. An acid is weak when it dissociates to a very small extent. If u have a certain solution of that acid, check if the concentration of the acid itself is close to that of the solution. If they r the same, it is very strong and dissociates completely.
The formic acid is a weak acid.
Citric acid is considered to be a weak acid.
A weak acid.
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
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.
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.
The formic acid is a weak acid.
Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid. It is a fairly weak acid compared to strong acids like hydrochloric acid.
Yes it is a weak acid
Citric acid is considered to be a weak acid.
Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid.
H2CO3 Carbonic acid is a weak acid because it does not dissociate completely in solution making it a weak electrolyte.
No, NaCl is neither an acid, weak acid, or a (weak) base. It is considered a salt.
It is 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.
No, MgSO4 (magnesium sulfate) is not a strong acid. It is actually a salt that is formed from the reaction of magnesium hydroxide (a weak base) and sulfuric acid (a strong acid). When dissolved in water, it dissociates into its component ions but does not significantly contribute hydrogen ions to the solution to classify as a strong acid.
