Question

question 8
strong acids completely ____ in water. the answer is
ionize
dissolve.
evaporate.
float.
question 9
which of the following is a characteristic of acids?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Strong acids are substances that, when dissolved in water, release all their hydrogen ions. This process is called ionization. For example, hydrochloric acid (\(HCl\)) in water dissociates completely as \(HCl
ightarrow H^{+}+Cl^{-}\). Dissolve just means the acid mixes with water at a molecular level without necessarily releasing ions. Evaporate means turning into vapor, which is not relevant here. Float is about density - related buoyancy and not applicable to the chemical behavior of acids in water.

Answer:

ionize
