Interpretation : The conjugate acid-base pair
Concept Introduction : The adjective conjugate is used to differentiate the reactants from the products of the forward reaction. This word's root is a Latin verb that means "to connect together."
Answer to Problem 110A
The derivation of conjugate acid-base pair
Explanation of Solution
When a base pick up a hydrogen ion, a conjugate acid is created as an ion or molecule.
An ion or molecule that is left over after an acid loses a hydrogen ion is known as a conjugate base.
Two ions or molecules that are connected by the loss or gain of one hydrogen ion are referred to as a conjugate acid-base pair.
Consider a weak acid and its conjugate base.
The acid dissociation constant is given as
