Solutions

Expert Solution

First of all ,the options you have given are not matching with the question. The answer for the conjugate acid and conjugate base of bicarbonate ion is not here in any one of options.

Coming to the question, the bicarbonate ion is a base have -1 charge i.e; HCO3- and this is an amphiprotic ion which can act as both acid and base by losing or gaining proton respectively.

The addition of proton to a base yields conjugate acid. so, here

HCO3-   + H+ ----------> H2CO3

(conjugate acid of bicarbonate ion)

The removal of a proton form a acid gives conjugate base. so, for bicarbonate ion here acting like an acid

HCO3- ----------> CO32- + H+

(conjugate base of bicarbonate ion)

And also remember that these all are equilibrium reactions , and not one way reactions.

Now coming to the HPO42- ion, this also acts like amphiprotic as i stated above for bicarbonate ion.

The conjugate base of this species is given by the removal of proton ,

HPO42- ---------->    PO43- +    H+

(conjugate base of HPO42-)

The conjugate acid is given by addition of a proton,

HPO42- + H+ ----------> H2PO4-

(conjugate acid of HPO42-)
