Answer:

Also there is concept in acid and bases that the conjugate base of strong acid is a weak base. ... thus when we examine the carbonic acid, H2CO3, when it loses a proton, H+, the base formed will be a strong and resonance staballized base CO3- -. Thus it is aweak acid.

Explanation:

Carbonic acid is a weak acid that dissociates into a bicarbonate ion (HCO3- ) and a hydrogen ion (H+). Carbonic is a weak acid because not only is the conjugate base of a strong acid considered weak (like conjugate base of HCl is a weak base Cl-), but also weak acids are only partly dissociated in aqueous solution

lol my teacher was teaching this today

Formic acid (methanoic acid, HCOOH) is a weak acid that occurs naturally in bee and ant stings. Formic acid makes up 55–60% of the body mass of a typical ant; its name comes from 'formica', the Latin word for ant. The
