Question

The strength of an acid depends upon the number of ___________ produced.

• A. $C{O}_2$ molecules
• B. $O{H}^{-}$ ions
• C. $H_{2}O$ molecules
• D. $H^{+}$ ions

Answer 1

The correct option is D $H^{+}$ ions

Strength of an acid depends upon the number of H⁺ ions produced in the aqueous solution.A strong acid ionizes completely in solutions. This means it gives off the greatest number of hydrogen ions when placed in a solution. Whereas, a weak acid partially dissociates into its ions in an aqueous solution.
