Properties of Strong/Weak Acids/Bases Flashcards
1
Q
Electrical Conductivity (Strong Acids/Bases)
A
Strong acids/bases are good electrical conductors because they fully dissociate and therefore have more charged particles/ions.
2
Q
Electrical Conductivity (Weak Acids/Bases)
A
Weak acids/bases are poor electrical conductors because they partially dissociate and therefore have less charged particles/ions.
3
Q
Rate of Reaction (Strong Acids/Bases)
A
Strong acids/bases have fast rates of reaction because they fully dissociate and have many ions available to react.
4
Q
Rate of Reaction (Weak Acids/Bases)
A
Weak acids/bases have slow rates of reaction because they partially dissociate and have few ions available to react.
5
Q
Salts
A
Salt dissolves in water. One product reacts which water to form either H3O+ or OH-
