Question

Assertion: The conjugate acid of sulphate $\left(S{O}_4^{2-}\right)$ is $HS{O}_4^{-}$.

Reason: Bronsted acids have an extra proton in them than their conjugate bases.

• A. Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
• B. Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
  
• C. Assertion is true but Reason is false
  
• D. Assertion is false but Reason is true
• E. Both Assertion and Reason are false

Answer 1

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

Bronsted acids have an extra proton in them than their conjugate bases.

The conjugate acid of sulphate $S{O}_4^{2-}$ is $HS{O}_4^{-}$.
$S{O}_4^{2-}+H_3{O}^{+}\rightleftharpoons HS{O}_4^{-}+H_{2}O$
