ANSWER:
Solution:
Step 1
Strong base:-Strong bases are bases which completely dissociate in water into the cation and OH- (hydroxide ion). The hydroxides of the Group I and Group II metals usually are considered to be strong bases.
Weak base:-weak base is a chemical base that does not ionize fully in an aqueous solution. A weak base may also be defined as a chemical base in which protonation is incomplete.
