Write the formula of the conjugate base of each acid: hf, hno3, and ch3ch2ch2oh. be sure to answer all parts.

Acid : A species (molecule or ion) that can lose a proton (H+) is called an acid.

Conjugate base : A conjugate base is simply an acid that has given up a proton(H+).

1.

HF is an acid which will lose its proton(H+) and form its conjugate base

2.

is an acid which will lose its proton(H+) and form its conjugate base

3.

will lose its proton(H+) and form its conjugate base

Note : An acid when loses its proton(H+) form the conjugate base.

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6
