WEAK AND STRONG ACID (formula and difference)

The difference between strong and weak acids lies in their ability to dissociate in water:

Strong Acids fully dissociate in water, releasing all their hydrogen ions (H⁺). Examples include hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄).

  

Weak Acids only partially dissociate in water, releasing only some of their hydrogen ions (H⁺). Examples include acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and citric acid.

This difference affects their strength and behavior in chemical reactions.
