Hey all,

I was wondering if any of you guys have an extensive list of weak + strong acids. I know the most common ones (ie. HCl = strong, CH3COOH = weak etc...) but when it comes down to acids such as KNO2 or HCLO4, i'm really scratching my head...

(this applies for bases as well)

so do any of you guys have a special way of working out whether it is weak/ strong?

is there a website or a list where i can get this info from?

Many thanks!
