                                           Strength of Acids and Bases

            ❖ The strength of acids or bases depends on their degree of dissociation (ionization) in an
               aqueous solution.

               1)  Strong acids and strong          ✓  They are completely          Ex:
                              bases                    dissociated.                (HCl & NaOH).

                                                    ✓  They are partially          Ex:
             2)  Weak acids and weak bases
                                                        dissociated.               (CH COOH and NH OH).
                                                                                                          4
