Which statement always accurately describes acids and bases a the conjugate base of a weak acid is a strong base b the conjugate acid of a weak base is a weak acid c strong acids and st?
The conjugate base of a weak acid is always a strong base
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.
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.
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.
Is The conjugate acid of a strong base stronger acid than water?
No, the conjugate acid of most strong bases is water.

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.
How does an base differ from its conjugate acid?
The conjugate base results after the acidic hydrogen has been removed from the acid. For instance, if we look at water (a weak acid), then the conjugate base is the hydroxide anion, a strong base. The stronger the acid, the weaker the conjugate base, and vice versa.
Is chloride base or acid?
The chloride ion is the conjugate base of a strong acid.
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 the conjugate of a strong base is a weak acid?
NaHCO3 is a weak base, with a conjugate acid of H2CO3+.
Why the carbonate ion is a strong base?
It is the conjugate base of a weak acid (carbonic acid).
What best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?
Acid + base conjugate base + conjugate acid
