Which statement best relates the strength and concentration of a base? At high enough concentrations, a weak base becomes strong
2 answers:
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When there are more number of hydroxide ions in a solution then there will be high concentration of or hydroxide ions. As a result, more will be the strength of base in that particular solution.
A base is strong when it readily dissociate into its ions in the solution. When a base is strong, then it does not matter at what concentration it is dissolved in the solution because despite of its low concentration it will remain a strong base.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, the statement even at low concentrations, a strong base is strong best relates the strength and concentration of a base.
