Respuesta :

A way to classify an acid as being weak is to determine how strongly the substance conducts electricity. If the acid or base conducts electricity strongly, it is a strong acid or base. If the acid or base conducts electricity weakly, it is a weak acid or base.

Answer:

3 scenarios:  

1. acetic acid, organic acid that comes from vinager

2. citric acid, that is present in some fruits

3. phosphoric acid , present in sodas

Explanation:

A weak acid is the one that partially transferres its proton (H+) to a water molecule ( partial dissociation), and usually a part of the original acid (HA) remains after the process of dissociation; that is why, a dissociation reaction of a weak acid is represented with an arrow of both ways.

[tex]HA ⇌ H^{+} +A^{-}[/tex]

As we can see, the acetic acid, citric acid and phosphoric acid are great examples of weak acid. Their pH is higher thanks to its low dissociation, and they can even be eaten in low concentrations.
