    Why is boric acid considered as a weak acid?

    Answer:

    Boric acid itself does not release hydrogen ions. When it reacts with water, it receives \[O{{H}^{-}}\] ions from water molecules to complete its octet and releases \[{{H}^{+}}\] ions. \[\underset{Orthoboric\,acid}{\mathop{B{{(OH)}_{3}}}}\,+2{{H}_{2}}O\to {{[B{{(OH)}_{4}}]}^{-}}+{{H}_{3}}{{O}^{-}}\]
