(a)
Interpretation:
The conjugate base for the acid should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Acid is defined as a substance that gives hydrogen ion/s in the aqueous solution. Similarly, base is a substance that gives hydroxide ions in the aqueous solution. When a acid gives its hydrogen ion, conjugate base is formed and when a base gives its hydroxide ion, conjugate acid is formed.
For example, if HA is an acid, the reaction for formation of conjugate base will be as follows:
Here,
Similarly, if BOH is a base, the reaction for formation of conjugate acid will be as follows:
Here,
Thus, a conjugate base can accept hydrogen ion and conjugate base can accept hydroxide ion.
