Question 1 Report

A WEAK ACID IS ONE WHICH
Answer Details
A weak acid is one which is slightly ionized in water. In other words, when a weak acid is dissolved in water, only a small fraction of its molecules dissociate into ions. This is in contrast to a strong acid, which dissociates almost completely into ions when dissolved in water. As a result of its weak ionization, a weak acid has a lower acidity compared to a strong acid.
