CH3COOH is a weak acid because it ionizes only partially in aqueous solution to form H+ and CH3COO– ions. Therefore the nature of CH3COO– is basic, and we call CH3COO– the conjugate base of CH3COOH. It is in equilibrium with its ions in water and its conjugate (CH3COO–, a weak base) is also in equilibrium in water.
