A weak acid is an acid that does not ionize in solution to a significant extent; that is, if the acid was represented by the general formula HA, then in aqueous solution a significant amount of undissociated HA still remains. Weak acids in water dissociate asThe equilibrium concentrations of reactants and products are related by the Acidity constant expression, (Ka):
