Describes strong and weak acid bases

 Strong and Weak Acids and Bases:

  • A strong acid or base is a substance that completely dissociates into ions when dissolved in water, whereas a weak acid or base only partially dissociates into ions when dissolved in water. 
  • Strong acids and bases have a high ionization constant, which means they ionize to a large extent in water. 
  • Weak acids and bases have a low ionization constant, which means they only ionize to a small extent in water.
