The dissociation of a weak acid/base in solution is not complete.

<h3>Strong acid and strong base</h3>

A strong acid is an acid that dissociates completely in solution. A strong base is a base that dissociates completely in solution.

A weak acid do not dissociate completely in solution and a weak base do not dissociate completely in solution.

The equation of the dissociation of a strong acid/base goes to completion while that of a weak acid or base is reversible with the equilibrium position lying closer to the left hand side.

The reaction equation is the chemical formula of reagents and product substances

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

Reaction

2HNO₃ + Mg(OH)₂ → Mg(NO₃)₂ + 2H₂0

mol HNO₃ = 8

From the equation, mol ratio of HNO₃ : Mg(NO₃)₂ = 2 : 1, so mol Mg(NO₃)₂ :

$\tt \dfrac{1}{2}\times 8=4~moles$
