    Study Notes

    Strong Acids

    • HCl (Hydrochloric acid) is classified as a strong acid.
    • HBr (Hydrobromic acid) is recognized as a strong acid.
    • HI (Hydriodic acid) is another example of a strong acid.
    • H2SO4 (Sulfuric acid) is also a strong acid.
    • HClO4 (Perchloric acid) is considered a strong acid.
    • HClO3 (Chloric acid) falls into the category of strong acids.

    Weak Acids

    • HF (Hydrofluoric acid) is categorized as a weak acid.
    • HC2H3O2 (Acetic acid) is a well-known weak acid.
    • H3PO4 (Phosphoric acid) is classified as a weak acid.
    • H2CO3 (Carbonic acid) is also a weak acid.
    • HCN (Hydrogen cyanide) is a weak acid.
    • HClO2 (Chlorous acid) is considered a weak acid.
    • HClO (Hypochlorous acid) is classified as a weak acid.

    Reaction Characteristics

    • Strong acids fully dissociate in reactions, proceeding to completion.
    • Weak acids partially dissociate, establishing an equilibrium in reactions.

    Strong Bases

    • LiOH (Lithium hydroxide) is categorized as a strong base.
    • NaOH (Sodium hydroxide) is recognized as a strong base.
    • KOH (Potassium hydroxide) is classified as a strong base.
    • HNO3 (Nitric acid) is another strong acid, complementing strong basics.
    • PbOH (Lead hydroxide) is categorized as a strong base.
    • Mg(OH)2 (Magnesium hydroxide) is recognized as a strong base.
    • Ca(OH)2 (Calcium hydroxide) is also classified as a strong base.

    Identifying Strong and Weak Acids/Bases

    • Strong acids typically have at least two more oxygen atoms than hydrogen atoms.
    • Weak bases often contain nitrogen or carbon in their structure.
    • NH3 (Ammonia) is identified as a weak base.
    • CH3NH2 (Methylamine) is recognized as a weak base.
    • CH3Cl2NH3 (a derivative of ammonia) is also categorized as a weak base.
