Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation: The conjugate acid
Concept introduction: Conjugate acid and conjugate base are the substances that are formed by losing or gaining hydrogen ions. When an acid loses a hydrogen ion, then the product formed will be its conjugate base, and when a base accepts a hydrogen ion, the product formed will be its conjugate acid.
b)
Interpretation: To determine the conjugate base of
Concept introduction: Conjugate acid and conjugate base are the substances that are formed by losing or gaining hydrogen ions. When an acid loses a hydrogen ion, then the product formed will be its conjugate base, and when a base accepts a hydrogen ion, the product formed will be its conjugate acid.
