Strong Bases
Strong bases are any type of electrolyte that ionizes
completely when dissolved in water. examples of strong bases
include NaOH, KOH, Mg(OH) .
2
Weak Bases
A weak base is a weak electrolyte that partially ionizes
when dissolved in water. One example is ammonia acid (NH ).
3
When dissolved in water, ammonia will form an equilibrium
reaction because not all molecules are ionized into ions
The strength of an acid or base can be expressed
by its equilibrium constant, called the acid ionization
constant (Ka) or base ionization constant (Kb)
