    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

    hx → hz → hy
