Question

matching: match each term/statement to the best description.

strength
concentration
strong acid/base at same concentration
weak acids/bases

choose...
how much acid or base is present in a solution
can still be hazardous when concentrated
reactivity of a particular acid or base
more hazardous than a weak one

Explanation:

Analyze the matching terms

We need to match four terms/statements on the left with their best descriptions from the dropdown menu options on the right.

Left-side terms:

1. Strength
2. Concentration
3. Strong acid/base at same concentration
4. Weak acids/bases

Right-side dropdown options:

• How much acid or base is present in a solution
• Can still be hazardous when concentrated
• Reactivity of a particular acid or base
• More hazardous than a weak one

Match Strength

Strength refers to the inherent chemical property of an acid or base to dissociate into ions in water (its degree of ionization or reactivity). Therefore, Strength matches with Reactivity of a particular acid or base.

Match Concentration

Concentration refers to the amount of solute (acid or base) dissolved in a given volume of solution. Therefore, Concentration matches with How much acid or base is present in a solution.

Match Strong acid/base at same concentration

When comparing a strong acid/base to a weak acid/base at the exact same concentration, the strong one dissociates completely, releasing more ions and making it more reactive and dangerous. Therefore, Strong acid/base at same concentration matches with More hazardous than a weak one.

Match Weak acids/bases

Weak acids and bases do not dissociate completely in solution, but if they are highly concentrated, they can still release enough ions to cause severe burns or damage. Therefore, Weak acids/bases matches with Can still be hazardous when concentrated.

Answer:

Term/Statement	Best Description
Concentration	How much acid or base is present in a solution
Strong acid/base at same concentration	More hazardous than a weak one
Weak acids/bases	Can still be hazardous when concentrated
