Why is the conjugate base of a strong acid not considered a Brønsted-Lowry base? Is it because the base is so weak that it essentially has no ability to accept a proton?
(Quote from my lecture notes: "$\ce{Br-}$ is the conjugate base of a strong acid ($\ce{HBr}$), so it will not act as a Brønsted-Lowry base").
