A researcher compares aqueous solutions of carbonic acid and nitric acid.
Which statement correctly compares the degree of ionisation of these acids?
Nitric acid has a higher degree of ionisation than carbonic acid.
The degree of ionisation is set by concentration, not by the acid.
Carbonic acid has a higher degree of ionisation than nitric acid.
Both acids have the same degree of ionisation.
