Lecture 6.3 Strong Acids and Bases

Todays Learning Target6.3 I can characterize a compound as either a strong acid/base or weak acid/base based on how much it dissociates.

What are strong and weak acid and bases?

I. Strength of Acids/BasesAcids/Bases can be classified as strong or weak based on how much it disassociates.Disassociate To break apartAcids/Bases that completely dissociate are called strong acids/basesAcids/Bases that only partially dissociate are called weak acids/bases.

Dissociation

II. Strong Acids1. HI2. HBr3. HCl 4. HNO35. HClO46. HClO37. H2SO4You must memorize these!

III. Strong Bases1. Ca(OH)22. Sr(OH)23. Ba(OH)24. NaOH5. KOH6. RbOH7. CsOHYou must memorize these!

All acids/bases that are not on this list are weak acids/bases
