Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Conjugate acid of bicarbonate ion has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Bronsted-Lowry acid outlined the definition of acids as species that donate
In accordance with Bronsted definition, the most usual type of acid-base reaction involves lone pair of base that reaches out for an acidic proton. Once deprotonation has occurred species assumes a negative charge and is referred to as the conjugate base of acid and other species with a positive charge as a result of proton acceptance is termed conjugate acid of given base. For example;
(b)
Interpretation:
Conjugate base of bicarbonate ion has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
