Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Strong acid, weak acid, strong base and weak base to be identified for the given reaction.
Concept Introduction:
Strong Acid is an acid which gives or releases proton readily in the solution while weak acid looses proton with increase in concentration of the solution.
Strong base radilly releases hydroxyl ion in the solution while weak base not releases hydroxyl ion readily in the solution.
