The diagram that represents this is (b) (2) In a weak acid solution we should expect: - HCl: Yes. (Because they didn't got completely ionizated.) - H+: Yes, because some part have ionizated. - Cl-: Yes, because some part have ionizated. - They all are in a moderated quantity. The diagram that represents this is (c). (3) In a very weak acid solution we should expect: - HCl: In large quantities. - Cl-: In low quantity. -H+: In low quantity. The diagram that represents this is (d).
