Which of the following acids will have the strongest conjugate base? A) HCl B) HClO₄ C) H₂SO₄ D) HCN E) KF

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The strength of a conjugate base depends on the acidity of its corresponding acid. Stronger acids have weaker conjugate bases. Among the given options, HCN is the weakest acid, meaning it will have the strongest conjugate base. The other options are stronger acids and will therefore have weaker conjugate bases. KF is not an acid; it is a salt, and therefore not relevant to this question.
