The six strong acids that you should remember are
HClHCl
HBrHBr
HIHI
H_2SO_4H2SO4
HNO_3HNO3
HClO_4HClO4
Any other acid that you see you can consider a weak acid.

For strong bases, any hydroxide (OH^-OH) is considered strong. The base has better solubility if it is in a 1:1 ratio with the metal that it is bonded to.

For example, Ca(OH)_2Ca(OH)2 is not as soluble as NaOHNaOH .
