Paper 1: Strong And Weak Acids Flashcards
Which solution has a greater amount of dissolved solute particles?
Concentrated solution
How can you change a concentration of solution from concentrated to dilute?
Adding more water
How can you change a dilute solution to a concentrated solution?
Dissolving more solute in it
Evaporating some of the water
What are examples of strong acids?
Hydrochloric acid
Sulfuric acid
In a strong acid, when the ph increases by 1, what does the H+ ion concentration decrease by?
A factor of 10
What are examples of a weak acid?
Ethanoic acid
Why are strong acids strong?
Because they fully dissociate into ions in solution
Why are weak acids, weak?
Because it partially dissociates into ions in solution
