Answer:
HCO₂/H₂O is not the acid-base conjugate pair.
Explanation:
<em>Acid and conjugate base pairs differ by an H+ ion.</em>
Neither HCO₂ nor H₂O has lost or gained protons.
The conjugate acid of H₂O is H₃O⁺
The conjugate base of HCO₃⁻ is CO₃²⁻
[A conjugate acid has one more H⁺ than its base]

Each water molecule consists of two atoms of the element hydrogen joined to one atom of the element oxygen. An interesting property of water is the ability of its molecules to “stick together.” This occurs because one side of each water molecule is slightly negative and the other side is slightly positive. The positive portion of a water molecule is attracted to the negative portion of an adjacent water molecule. As a result, water molecules are called polar molecules. They attract other water molecules like little magnets. It is most likely ionic bonding but between hydrogen and oxygen it is covalent.

The element which is least likely to undergo a chemical reaction is (4) neon.
The reason for this is because neon is a noble gas, which means that it doesn't react with other elements as well.
