Question

Can anyone explain a conjugate acid base pair and/ or provide an example? Thanks will give medal.

Answer 1

conjugate means connected, or related by some manner.

Answer 2

@abb0t if we have the reaction NH3 + H20 ---- NH4+ + OH-
What would be the conjugate acid base pair in this case and why?

Thanks

Answer 3

In the following case
consider Water to be Acid1
Since water donates a proton it acts as an acid and turns into OH+ which is a base1

Conjugate acid-base pairs are compounds that differ by the presence of one proton or H+.
All acids have a conjugate base. As soon as the acid donates the proton it forms a conjugate base.
Similarily all base have conjugate acid which is formed after they have accepted the proton.
