Conjugate Bases of Brønsted Acids: Formulas and Descriptions
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
This video delves into the fundamental concept of conjugate bases in the context of the Brønsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases, explaining how when acids donate protons, they transform into their respective conjugate bases. This understanding is exemplified through the specific reactions of various compounds, illustrating how each Brønsted acid, upon proton donation, gives rise to its corresponding conjugate base.
