Question

Give the formula of the conjugate base of each of the following. (Type your answer using the format CO2 for CO₂, (NH4)2CO3 for (NH₄)₂CO₃, [NH4]+ for NH₄⁺, and [Ni(CN)4]2- for Ni(CN)₄^2-.)

(a) NH₄^{+............................................}

(b) OH .......................................

(c) HSO₄^{-.............................................}

Answer 1

a) NH3 is the conjugate base of NH4+

b) In this case I'm assuming you mean OH- is the acid. Thus, H3O+ would be the base

c) SO4^2- = conjugate base
