What is the conjugate acid for HSO4?
H2SO4 is already a strong acid.If you mean what is the conjugate base, then the answer is HSO4-
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 an acid pair know as?
Acid base pairs differing ONE proton (H+) are called conjugate acid-base pair.Examples:H3O+ and H2OH2O and OH-NH4+ and NH3HBr and Br-HNO2 and NO2-H2SO4 and HSO4-HSO4- and SO42-HOCl and OCl-(In order of 'acid and base' respectively)
Is HSO4- a weak acid?
no it is a strong acid
Is the sulfate ion the conjugate base of sulphuric acid?
Yes, it is, another conjugate base of sulphuric acid is bisulphate ion, HSO4

no it is a strong acid
Is the sulfate ion the conjugate base of sulphuric acid?
Yes, it is, another conjugate base of sulphuric acid is bisulphate ion, HSO4
IS HIO a strong acid?
HSO4(-), hydrogen sulfate, is the conjugate base of H2SO4, sulfuric acid.
Is HSe- an acid or base?
HSO4 is Hydrogen Sulphate and an amphiprotic species. It is the conjugate base of H2SO4. H2SO4 is sulphuric acid, a very strong acid.
Is hso4 a strong or weak acid?
HSO4- is a stronger acid than NH4+
Is HSO4 and acid?
HSO4, the bisulfate ion is acidic.
What is the conjugate acid of so4 2-?
The conjugate acid of SO4^2- is HSO4^-
What is the conjugate acid of HS?
You mean sulfuric acid. H2SO4 ---------------- HSO4 - ---------------The conjugate base, hydrogen sulfate.
Why is HSO4 a weaker acid than H2SO4?
You can only get your answer in terms of the acid ionization constant, K_a. The K_a of H2SO4 is immeasurably high and the K_a of HSO4- is 1.3x10^-2. The higher the K_a, the stronger the acid. Therefore, H2SO4 is the stronger acid. Just a slight correction to the question, there is no HSO4. It exists as an ion HSO4-
