Bases that do not contain OH– are weak
Weak Acids and Bases
2) K b = [ BH + ] [ OH − ] [ B ] A list of Kb values for selected bases arranged in order of strength is given in the table below
Acetic acid (CH3COOH or HC2H3O2) and carbonic acid (H2CO3) are common weak acids
Carboxylic and other organic acids are weak acids
Definition of pH
A general formula for base behavior is as follows: [latex]B (aq) + H_2O (aq) rightleftharpoons BH^+ (aq) + OH^- (aq) [/latex] Sep 22, 2017 · Weak bases can create equilibrium in an aqueous solution; since the base is partially dissociated into its ions, the remaining base molecules and dissociated ions are in equilibrium
There are very few strong bases (see Table 12
A solution of a weak acid in water is a mixture of the nonionized acid, hydronium ion, and the conjugate base of the acid, with the nonionized acid present in the greatest concentration

Ammonia itself obviously doesnt contain hydroxide ions, but it reacts with water to produce ammonium ions and hydroxide ions
