What else can I help you with?
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.
Is mgso4 a strong acid?
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.
Acid with a small k value would be a?
weak acid
