Concept explainers
Which of the following are conjugate acid-base pairs? Describe why the others are not true conjugate acid-base pairs:
Interpretation:
The conjugate acid-base pairs are to be identified and the reason for those which are not acid-base pairs is to be described.
Concept Introduction:
There are various concepts which describe acids and bases, such as Arrhenius concept, Bronsted-Lowry concept, Lewis concept.
According to Bronsted-Lowry concept, acids are the substances which provide
