Question
I cannot understand why the ephedrine HCl is considered as a conjugated weak acid of the weak base ephedrine. I think I am missing out some concepts. I know the ibuprofen is a weak acid and ibuprofen sodium is a weak base I just memorised it cuz I cannot understand why. I only know sodium salt of wa acts a s wb. Sodium salt of wb acts as a weak acid
