Question

According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that __________. a. is capable of donating one or more H⁺b. tastes bitter c. reacts with the solvent to form the cation formed by autoionization of that solvent d. causes an increase in the concentration of H⁺ in aqueous solutions e. can accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond

Answer 1

a. is capable of donating one or more H⁺

Step-by-step 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,
`H^+`.

Hence, Option A is correct.
