One has more H^+ than the other for an acid. For example
H2CO3 ==> H^+ + HCO3^-
H2CO3 is the acid; HCO3^- is the base of the conjugate pair.
HCO3^- ==> H^+ + CO3^2-
HCO3^- is the acid and CO3^2- is the base. of the conjugate pair
NH4^+ ==> NH3 + H^+
NH4^+ is the acid and NH3 is the base.
How about SO3^2- + H^+ ==> HSO4^-
Can you do that one?
