How is the strength of a weak acid related to the strength of its conjugate base?
Strong acids and bases dissociate completely in water. Strong acids produce a pH of less than 3 and form weak conjugate bases. Strong bases produce a pH greater than 10 and form a weak conjugate acid.
What best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?
Acid + base conjugate base + conjugate acid
What describes species that are related by a difference in protons?
the conjugate acid/base of an acid-base pair
What is the conjugate base and conjugate acid for HSO4-?
The conjugate base and conjugate acid for HS04 is: Conjugate acid is H2SO4 Conjugate base is SO42
What is the conjugate acid for base H2O?
Its conjugate acid is H3O+

What is a congugate base?
The base which a certain acid turns into.Every acid had a conjugate base:HX (acid) X- (conjugate base)The acid is also called the base's conjugate acid.
What is the conjugate acid for base H2O?
Its conjugate acid is H3O+
What is the conjugate base for acid Iodine?
Assuming you are asking about the base I-, the conjugate acid is HI, hydroiodic acid. Since hydroiodic acid is a strong acid, it can be concluded that iodide (I-) is a weak conjugate base.
Is conjugated acid a strong acid?
No, a conjugate acid is simply a product of an acid-base reaction. Every base has a conjugate acid.
What two components make up a buffered solution?
Buffer solution is a type of solution which contains acid and at the same time a base material. The two components are a weak acid and a conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.
Explain how the relationship between the strengths of an acid and its conjugate base and of a base and its conjugated acid?
If acid is strong then its conjugate base must be weak, if conjugate base is strong it again accept the H+ ions so acid can neither be strong, similarly if base is strong its conjugate acid must be weak.
What are conjugate acids and conjugate bases?
They are the products of an acid-base reaction (by the Bronsted-Lowry definition). A conjugate base is what is left when an acid loses a proton (H+), for example the conjugate base of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is the bisulfate ion (HSO4-). A conjugate acid is the product of a base gaining a proton, for example the conjugate acid of ammonia (NH3) is the ammonium ion (NH4+).
Is an example of a conjugate acid-base pair?
For the nitric acid (HNO3) the conjugate base is the ion (NO3)-.
