Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

All Arrhenius acids and bases are also Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases.

An Arrhenius base is a compound that dissociates to form hydroxide ions in water.

NaOH(s) → Na^+(aq) +OH^-(aq)

A Bronsted-Lowry base is a proton acceptor.

NaOH is a Bronsted-Lowry base because the hydroxide on can accept a proton from HCl to form water.

Thus, all Arrhenius bases are Bronsted-Lowry bases.
