Weak acids for midterm

Postby phiryn » Wed Jan 31, 2024 3:35 pm

Do we need to memorize the names and formulas for the weak acids and bases or will it be given on the midterm (formula wise)?

I do not believe we need to memorize the weak acids, if the problem gives the Ka value or it is an organic acid then that means that the acid is weak. Nevertheless it may be helpful to memorize the strong acids and bases.
