Which of the following statements is true? A strong acid has a strong conjugate base. None of the above statements are true. A weak base is composed of a cation and an anion with a very weak attraction between them. The conjugate base of a very weak acid is stronger than the conjugate base of a strong acid. A strong acid is composed of a proton and an anion that have a very strong attraction for one another.
