OpenStudy (photon336):

NaOH --> Na+ + OH- HBr --> Br- + H+ weak acids and bases do not dissociate. This makes the strong acids and bases act like ionic compounds in terms of electric conductivity. The mobile ions are able to transfer the charges from the cathode to the anode. Strong acids dissociate more, produce more ions so they would be able to conduct electricity as well. Also strong acids ionize well in water.

OpenStudy (photon336):

It always has a concentration above 1.0M is not true

OpenStudy (photon336):

because there are two things you need to consider: the STRENGTH of the acid, and the concentration of the acid.

OpenStudy (photon336):

the concentration of say H+ can vary but the overall strength of an acidic compound is determined by the pKa

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So would it be the first option

OpenStudy (photon336):

the question asks which of the following isn't true "it always has a concentration above 1.0M" is false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh I'm sorry. I was not paying attention. Thank you

OpenStudy (photon336):

absolutely!
