Respuesta :

Conjugate base of HCl is [tex]Cl^{-}[/tex]  and Conjugate acid-base pair is [tex]H_{3}O ^ {+} \text{ and } H_{2}O[/tex] are the correct statements.

What are the correct statements from the chemical reaction?

  • Conjugate acid-base pair differs by one [tex]H^{+}[/tex]ion.

          [tex]HCl +H_{2}O - > H _{3}O ^{+} + Cl^{-}[/tex]

  • HCl is acting as an acid and its conjugate base is  [tex]Cl^{-}[/tex]
  • [tex]H_{2}O[/tex] is acting as a base and its conjugate acid is [tex]H_{3}O ^ {+}[/tex]
  • So, options a and b are correct.

What is a conjugate acid?

  • The addition of a proton to a base results in the formation of a conjugate acid, while the removal of a proton from an acid results in the formation of a conjugate base.
  • It is a chemical molecule that is created when an acid contributes a proton to a base.
  • In other words, it is a base that has had a hydrogen ion added to it, since in the opposite reaction, the base loses a hydrogen ion.
  • Depending on the material and the perspective used, an anion can be a conjugate base and a cation can be a conjugate acid.
  • Solvated electrons, whose conjugate acid is atomic hydrogen, are the most basic anions that can serve as conjugate bases.
