    Strong acids are those that dissociate completely into their ions. So the dissociation equation for a strong acid is:

    HA → H⁺ + A⁻

    It is visible from the equation that the number of moles of hydrogen ions released is equivalent to the number of moles of acid. For a given volume,

    [HA] → [H]⁺ + [A]⁻

    Thus, the assumption is logical and fairly accurate
