Question

What happens when a strong acid reacts with a weak base?

I need verified answer

Answer 1

Answer:A strong Acid and a weak base always gives an acidic salt and water.

If the acid and base both are strong or both are weak the salt is NEUTRAL

If one of the constituent ( either base or an acid ) is strong it would give a basic salt or acidic salt along with water.

EX:

strong acid and strong base  gives a neutral salt

HCl + NaOH-----> NaCl + H20

strong acid and weak base gives a basic salt

HCl+ NH4OH-----> NH4Cl + H20  

Answer 2

Hey User!!

Here's your answer.

✨Those bases which are less ionised when dissolved in water, are known as weak bases.

Example : NH4OH (aq) -- NH4+ (aq) + OH- (aq)

✨ Those acids which ionised more or less completely when dissolved in water are called strong acids.

Example : HCl (aq) --> H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)

✨REACTION IS IN THE ATTACHMENT✨

✨Formation basically results in formation of salts ✨

Hope it helps!!
