How could you describe an acid based on Arrhenius's theory? A. produces OH⁻ in solution. B. produces H⁺ in solution. C. a proton acceptor. D. a proton donor. E. none of the above

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. produces H⁺ in solution.

Explanation:

Arrhenius theory:-

The Arrhenius theory was introduced introduced by Swedish scientist named Svante Arrhenius in 1887.

According to the theory, acids are the substances which dissociate in the aqueous medium to produce electrically charged atoms ( may be molecule). Out of these species furnished, one must be a proton or the hydrogen ion, [tex]H^+[/tex].

Base are the substances which dissociate in the aqueous medium to produce electrically charged atoms ( may be molecule). Out of these species furnished, one must be a hydroxide ion, [tex]OH^-[/tex].

Hence, the correct option is:- B. produces H⁺ in solution.
