Concept explainers
a.
To determine:
The given molecule as a strong or weak acid.
Introduction:
A weak acid or a base is defined as an acid or a base which does not dissociate completely into ions in aqueous solution that is they are partially ionizable in aqueous solution. On the other hand, strong acids and base dissociate completely into ions in its solution.
b.

The given molecule as a strong or weak acid.
Introduction:
A weak acid or a base is defined as an acid or a base which does not dissociate completely into ions in aqueous solution that is they are partially ionizable in aqueous solution. On the other hand, strong acids and base dissociate completely into ions in its solution.
