Chemistry Acids and Bases Quiz

Strong acids completely ionize in water, releasing a large number of H+ ions, while weak acids partially ionize, releasing fewer H+ ions.

A pH level less than 7 indicates an acidic solution, exactly 7 indicates a neutral solution, and greater than 7 indicates a basic solution.

When a strong acid reacts with a weak base, it produces an acidic salt and water.
