What are weak acids? Give example!

Answer»

acid is ONE that does not dissociate completely in solution; this means that a WEAK acid does not donate all of its hydrogen ions (H+) in a solution.▪The MAJORITY of acids are weak.▫Weak acids ionize in a water solution only to a very MODERATE extent.▪The Ka of weak acids varies between 1.8×10−16 and 55.5.▫Although it is only a weak acid, a concentrated enough solution of acetic acid can still be quite acidic.Examples of weak acids include :-Formic acid (HCOOH)Acetic acid (CH3COOH)Hydrocyanic acid (HCN)Water (H2O)THANKS_❗❗====×====×====×====×====
