Answer» In aqueous solutions, strong acids ionise completely and provide hydronium ions. On the other hand, weak acids are partially ionised and an aqueous solution of same molar concentration provides a much smaller concentration of H3O+ ions. Strong acids Hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, nitric acid. Weak acids-Citric acid, acetic acid, formic acid. |
