calculating pKa and pKb

Postby Riya Sood 4G » Thu Nov 28, 2019 6:15 pm

Write the chemical formula for the conjugate acid of the base pyridine,
C5H5N, and calculate its pKa from the pKb for pyridine.

How do we solve this problem?

i think the sum of the pKa and pKb should be 14.

The conjugate acid is [C5H5NH]+.
