Solution

A weak base is best described as a base that only partially dissociates. This means that in a solution, only a fraction of the base molecules will break apart to form hydroxide ions (OH-). This is in contrast to a strong base, which fully dissociates in solution. The strength of a base is not related to its concentration, so a base with a low concentration or a diluted strong base would not necessarily be considered a weak base.
