## Question:

If you have a reaction where {eq}OH^- {/eq} acts as a base, what would be the conjugate acid?

A. {eq}O^{2-} {/eq}

B. {eq}NaOH {/eq}

C. {eq}H_2O {/eq}

D. {eq}OH^- {/eq}

E. {eq}OH^+ {/eq}

## Conjugate Acid:

Acid is defined as a substance that produces hydrogen ions when dissociated in water. Whereas base is a substance that gives ion of hydroxide on dissociation in water. The proton donor is said to be an acid, and the proton acceptor is said to be a base, according to the acid-base principle of Bronsted-Lowry. The base forms a conjugate acid after accepting a proton.
