In the text box provided, comment on the values of Ksp that you obtained in this experiment. Compare and contrast the values you obtained in pure water, in 0.01 M KIO3 both with and without including activity effects. Because Ksp should be independent of the solvent, we would expect the more accurate treatment of the data to have a smaller difference between the values obtained in pure water and in 0.01 M KIO3. Do your data show that Ksp is more nearly a constant when activity effects are included in the calculation?

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
