Conjugate acid-base pair -

The acid-base pair that differ only by one proton is called a conjugate acid-base pair.

\mathrm{HCl+H_{2}O\rightleftharpoons H_{3}O^{+}+Cl^{-}}

Cl- is the conjugate base of  HCl  &  H3O+  is the conjugate acid of  H2O.

 

In the given case,

\mathrm{HF^{+}\overset{+H^{+}}{\longrightarrow}H_2F^+}

(Acid)            (base)
