Understand the Problem
The text explains the Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, detailing how acids and bases interact in terms of proton donation and acceptance, specifically focusing on the concepts of conjugate acids and bases.
Answer
The charge increases by 1.
The charge of the base increases by 1.
Answer for screen readers
The charge of the base increases by 1.
More Information
In the Bronsted-Lowry model, the acceptance of a proton by a base increases its charge because gaining a positively charged proton reduces the net negative charge.
Tips
A common mistake is forgetting that the change involves gaining or losing a proton, which directly affects the overall charge.
