What is the definition of a strong acid?
What is the definition of a strong acid?
- A strong acid almost completely dissociates in aqueous solution and produces many H+ ions. (correct)
- A strong acid is a proton acceptor and does not produce H+ ions.
- A strong acid partially dissociates in aqueous solution and produces few H+ ions.
- A strong acid cannot dissociate in aqueous solution and does not produce H+ ions.
What is the definition of a buffer?
What is the definition of a buffer?
- A solution that resists changes in pH when an acid or alkali is added to it. (correct)
- A substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process.
- A substance that completely neutralizes acids to maintain a constant pH.
- A solution that enhances changes in pH when an acid or alkali is added to it.

Study Notes
pH of a Solution
- The pH of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 10^(-8) mol/L is 8.
Acid Types
- A strong acid is an acid that completely dissociates in water, producing a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
Buffer Solutions
- A buffer is a solution that resists changes in pH when an acid or base is added to it.
Acid Characteristics
- Volatile acids, such as carbonic acid and hydrochloric acid, can be 'breathed off' as gases.
Blood pH
- The normal range for blood pH is between 7.35 and 7.45.
