Chapter 9, Problem 9.14E

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The formula for the conjugate acid formed when the given base behaves as a Brønsted base is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

According to Brønsted theory of acids and bases, a substance that donates hydrogen ions $\left({\text{H}}^{\text{+}}\right)$ to any other substance is known as an acid. On the other hand, a substance that accepts hydrogen ions $\left({\text{H}}^{\text{+}}\right)$ is known as base. The species that remains after donating proton by a Brønsted acid is known as its conjugate base.
