Conjugate Acids:
- A conjugate acid is created when a base gains a proton (H+).
- For example in the picture, Spongebob is an acid and Patrick is a base and Spongebob gives Patrick a proton, Patrick is now a conjugate acid.
Conjugate Bases:
- A conjugate base is created when an acid loses a proton (H+).
- For example in the picture, Spongebob is an acid and gives Patrick his proton, he is now a conjugate base because he gave away his proton.
