No, Br is the symbol for Bromine, which is an element in the Halogen group. It can combine with Hydrogen to form Hydrogen bromide (HBr), which is acidic.

What is the conjugate base of HBr?

There is no conjugate) base coupled to bromide, Br-, because this Br- can NOT donate (by protolysing) a proton (H+) in water.However Br- itself is the very, very weakest base of the (very, very) strong conjugate acid HBr.This is the only possible conjugate acid/base pair:HBr/Br-

No,acids undergo dissociation to form hydrogen ion in water.MgBr2 dissociate to form Mg2+ and Br- in water only,no hydrogen ions are produced.


Is C5H5NHBr acid or basic?

C5H5NHBr is acidic because it dissociates into Br- and C5H5NH+ ions. Br- comes from a strong acid, making its conjugate neutral. C5H5NH comes from a weak base, making its conjugate a significant acid. Now, because one ion is neutral and the other is acidic, that means that the overall solution is acidic :)


Is Cl a stronger base than Br?

yes it is, because HBr is a stronger acid than HCl, therfore, HBr will have a weaker conjugate base, Br, than HCl, Cl
