Question

Describe two different properties that could be used to distinguish between a

1.00 mol {dm}^{- 3}

solution of a strong monoprotic acid and a

1.00 mol {dm}^{- 3}

solution of a weak monoprotic acid.

Accepted Answer

The two different properties that could be used to distinguish between a $1.00 mol {dm}^{- 3}$ solution of a strong monoprotic acid and a $1.00 mol {dm}^{- 3}$ solution of a weak monoprotic acid.

Measuring the $pH$ : The strong acid solution will have a lower $pH$ , whereas weak acid solution will have a higher $pH$ .

Conductivity measurement:The strong acid will be a better conductor; the strong acid will react more vigorously with metals/carbonates; whereas weak acid is weak conductor. The heat change when it is neutralised with a base will be different. i.e., heat of neutralisation.
