Choose the statement below that is TRUE. Question 7 options: The term "strong electrolyte" means that the substance is extremely reactive. The term "weak electrolyte" means that the substance is inert. A weak acid solution consists of mostly nonionized acid molecules. A strong acid solution consists of only partially ionized acid molecules.

Answer: A weak acid solution consists of mostly nonionized acid molecules.

Step-by-step explanation:

Strong electrolytes are those solutions which undergo complete dissociation when dissolved in water. The dissociation of strong electrolytes is given by a right arrow.

Weak electrolytes are those solutions which do not undergo complete dissociation when dissolved in water. The dissociation of weak electrolytes is given by a rightleft arrow.

Weak acids are those substances which dissociate partially to give
H^+ ions when dissolved in water. Thus most of molecules remain unionized in solutions.


CH_3COOH\rightleftharpoons CH_3COO^-+H^+

Strong acids are those substances which dissociate completely to give
H^+ ions when dissolved in water.


HNO_3(aq.)\rightarrow H^+(aq.)+NO_3^-(aq.)
