Strong bases are strong electrolytes and produce abundant quantities of the hydrogen ion H^+ (aq). Weak bases are weak electrolytes and are only partially ionized in solution. b. Strong bases are strong electrolytes and are completely ionized in solution. Weak bases are weak electrolytes and produce limited quantities of the hydrogen ion H^+ (aq). c. Strong bases are strong electrolyles and are partially ionized in solution. Weak bases are weak electrolytes and are completely ionized in solution. d Strong bases are strong electrolytes and are completely ionized in solution. Weak bases are weak electrolytes and are only partially ionized in solution. e. None of the above
