(N/A) strong base is a base that completely dissociates into its ions in an aqueous solution. An example of a strong base is $NaOH$ (Sodium hydroxide).
$A$ weak base is a base that partially dissociates into its ions in an aqueous solution. An example of a weak base is $Mg(OH)_2$ (Magnesium hydroxide or Milk of magnesia).

In an attempt to demonstrate electrical conductivity through an electrolyte,the following apparatus was set up. Which among the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(i)$ Bulb will not glow because electrolyte is not acidic.
$(ii)$ Bulb will glow because $NaOH$ is a strong base and furnishes ions for conduction.
$(iii)$ Bulb will not glow because circuit is incomplete.
$(iv)$ Bulb will not glow because it depends upon the type of electrolytic solution.
Solution: The apparatus shows a beaker containing a dilute $NaOH$ solution with two nails fixed on a rubber cork. $NaOH$ is a strong base that dissociates completely in water to provide $Na^+$ and $OH^-$ ions. These free ions act as charge carriers,allowing the electric current to flow through the solution and complete the circuit. Therefore,the bulb will glow. Statement $(ii)$ is correct.

Which of the following gives the correct increasing order of acidic strength?

Equal volumes of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions of the same concentration are mixed. The $pH$ of the resulting solution is checked with a $pH$ paper. What would be the colour obtained? (You may use the colour guide given in the figure.)

In $H_{3}O^{+}$,there is a coordinate covalent bond between $......$ and $......$.

If the approximate $pH$ of a solution is $7,$ what will be the colour of $pH$ paper when dipped into that solution?
