Video transcript

Hey everyone, we're asked to identify the conjugate base of per caloric acid. Now, as we've learned, the conjugate base of an acid is simply the compound formed when an acid loses a hydrogen ion. So if we take our per cleric acid and we remove that hydrogen ion, we're left with Perk Laurie, and this is going to be our conjugate base. So I hope this makes sense and let us know if you have any questions.
