ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

Strong acids are molecules that completely dissociate into their ions when it is in water whereas Weak acids are molecules that partially dissociate into ions in aqueous solution

From the given,

A set of aqueous solutions are prepared containing different acids at the same concentration acetic acid, chloric acid and hydrobromic acid.
