Among three bases, x−, y−, and z−, the strongest one is y−, and the weakest one is z−. rank their conjugate acids, hx, hy, and hz, in order of decreasing strength.
Bases: x- middle strength y- strongest base z- weakest base
The bases and conjugate acids have an inverse strength. The stronger the conjugate base, the weaker its conjugate acid.
I am considering two scenarios: Scenario 1: y- strongest base ; hy - weakest conjugate acid x- middle base ; hx - middle conjugate acid z- weakest base ; hz - strongest conjugate acid
hz → hx → hy
Scenario 2: y-strongest base ; hy - weakest conjugate acid x-middle base ; hx - strongest conjugate acid z-weakest base ; hz - middle conjugate acid
