State

Chem 0406's strong-dissociates-completely, weak-dissociates-partially distinction now sets how many particles each dissolved formula unit actually contributes.

Show

Hydrochloric acid dissociates essentially completely, while acetic acid leaves most molecules un-dissociated at the same concentration, giving each a different effective particle count.

Watch for

Strong and weak describe how completely a substance dissociates, never how much is dissolved — a weak electrolyte can still be concentrated.
