Question

What is an example of a Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base pair?

Answer 1

Below

Explanation:

So first of all, what is Bronsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases?
Well in 1923, two people with their last names Bronsted and Lowry defined acid as a substance which can donate a proton to form its conjugate base. Likewise, a base is a substance which can accept a proton to form its conjugate acid

`H_2SO_4(aq)+H_2O(l) -> H_3O^+=HSO_4^(-) (aq)`

`H_2SO_4` donates a proton, making it an acid
`H_2O` accepts the proton making it a base

Therefore, the transfer of protons shows that it is an acid base reaction
