The conjugate acid of amide ion `(NH_(2)^(-))` isA. `N_(2)H_(4)`B. `NH_(2)OH`C. `NH_(4)^(+)`D. `NH_(3)`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Whenever a species accepts a proton, it forms a conjugate acid. Thus, to find the conjugated acid of amide ion `(NH_(2)^(-))`, we add `H^(+)` and put one more positive charge (i.e., increase charge by 1),
`H^(+)+underset("Base")(NH_(2)^(+))rarr underset("Acid")(NH_(3))`
