The given question lacks the choices, however, the correct question with choices are:
hydrochloric acid is a strong acid. acetic acid is a weak acid. which statement about hydrochloric acid and acetic acid is correct?
- a. If the initial concentration of each acid is the same, then acetic acid will produce more H, 3, O, +, ions than hydrochloric acid..
- b. A solution of hydrochloric acid at equilibrium will have a greater concentration of solute than a solution of acetic acid at equilibrium.
- c. The pH of a solution of hydrochloric acid must be less than the pH of a solution of acetic acid.
- d. The dissociation constant for hydrochloric acid is greater than the dissociation constant for acetic acid.
The correct statement about hydrochloric acid and acetic acid is: D. The dissociation constant for hydrochloric acid is greater than the dissociation constant for acetic acid.
Acid strength is the ability of an acid to dissociate into a proton and an anion. The extent of dissociation of an acid in solution is shown by the dissociation constant.
- A strong acid splits or ionizes to completely or totally dissociates in a water solution
- A weak acid occasionally dissociates in a water solution.
Thus, The correct statement about hydrochloric acid and acetic acid is: D. The dissociation constant for hydrochloric acid is greater than the dissociation constant for acetic acid.
