An acid or base's strength refers to its degree of ionization. A strong acid will completely ionize in water while a weak acid will only partially ionize.
Since there are different degrees of ionization, there are different levels of weakness. Fortunately, there is a simple quantitative way of expressing this.
Since the ionization of a weak acid is an equilibrium.
The equilibrium constant for the ionization of an acid is called the acid ionization constant (Ka) .
