Weak acid: Weak acids are those acids that do not completely dissociate or partially dissociate into their constituent ions.

Example: Acetic acid(CH3COOH), Phosphoric acid(H3PO4), Carbonic acid(H2CO3)

The dissociation of acetic acid can be represented as:

CH3COOHaqAceticacid⇌CH3COO-aqAcetateion+H+aqHydrogenion
