Classification of Acids

Classification based on source, we have

Organic acids – from fruits and vegetables.

Inorganic acids – prepared in the laboratory.

Classification based on ionization

Strong acid – it ionizes completely in solution e.g HCL, H2SO4 etc.

Weak acid – it ionizes partially in solution e.g/ CH3 COOH1 CH3 CH2 COOH1 ETC.

 

Note: We also have concentrated and dilute acids based on the amount of dilution.

NEVER ADD WATER TO ACID BUT ADD ACID TO WATER WHILE DILUTING.
