The following diagrams represent aqueous solutions of three acids, HX, HY, and HZ. The water molecules have been omitted for clarity, and the hydrated proton is represented as H+ rather than H3O+. (a) Which of the acids is a strong acid? Explain.

Hello everyone today. We are. The following question. Shown below are representations of solutions of H. X. And H. Y. Water molecules have been removed and the hydrogen ions are shown as H plus identify the strong asset between the two. So it's important to note that a strong acid well completely ionized, meaning it will completely separate into hydrogen ions and its respective ion that is connected to. And so as we see here between H. X and H. Y, we see that H. Y. Has all of these molecules separated. And so that makes this following answer. B h Y is a strong asset. And with that we've answered the question, I hope this helped. And until next time.
