distinguish between strong acids and weak acids
Dear student!
A strong acid is an acid which ionizes almost completely when dissolved in water to produce a high concentration of hydrogen [H+]ions while a weak acid is an acid which ionizes partially when dissolved in water to produce a low concentration of hydrogen [H+] ions.
The strong acids are generally inorganic acids like HCl, H2SO4 , etc while the weak acids are generally organic acid with carboxylic acid (-COOH) groups as HCOOH (formic acid) , CH3COOH(acetic acid) etc.
