how can I determine the strongest base according to the Bronsted-Lowry theory? NO3, F, I, Cl
My reasoning: HNO3 is a strong acid (by using the table of strong acids), so NO3 is its weak conjugate base; the same is true about HCl and HI; HF is a weak acid, so F is its strong conjugate base. The answer is F
My question: how should I be able to determine it without using the table of strong and weak acids. Is there a way to determine it by using the Periodic table, or should I just memorize the strong and weak acids from the table?
Thank you very much
