pH Determination OF Aqueous Solution OF Weak Acid and Strong Acid||Weak Acid and Weak Acid|| Polyprotic Acid

Acid strength is measured by the position of equilibrium of ionization in water. In other words acid strength is the function of the stability of conjugate base of the acid. More is the stability of conjugate base of the acid, more is the acidity of acid. Which of the following is weakest acid?

Mineral acids are stronger acids than carboxylic acids because (i) mineral acids are completely ionised. (ii) carboxylic acids are completely ionised. (iii) mineral acids are partially ionised. (iv) carboxylic acids are partially ionised.
