An arrhenius acid is an bronsted lowry acid bt an arrhenius base is NT a bronsted lowry base?
no, arhenious base is also a bronsted lowry base
Could a bronsted-lowry acid not be an arrhenius acid?
Since protons are always transferred in the Arrenhius concept, all Arrhenius acid/base reactions are also Bronsted-Lowry acid/base reactions.
A Bronsted-Lowry base is a?
A Bronsted-Lowry base is a chemical species which has the ability to accept a proton (positive hydrogen cation). You could also say it as being a "proton acceptor" !
Do all Lewis acids have at least one proton?
No. Although all Bronsted-Lowry acids with H+ protons are also Lewis acids, Lewis acid classification is usually reserved for substances like CO2 and BF3 that don't have protons.
How do you know if a molecule is a base or an acid?
In brief: It could be done by measuring its pH level. Descriptive: There are a few ways to define an acid or a base: Arrhenius Defined acids and bases this way: Arrhenius Acids form H+ in solution Arrhenius Bases form OH- in solution Bronsted and Lowry defined acids and bases this way: Bronsted-Lowry Acids donate an H+ in solution Bronsted-Lowry Bases accept an H+ in solution OR in more general terms: Lewis defined acids and bases this way: Lewis Acids are defined as: Electron pair acceptors Lewis Bases are defined as: Electron pair donors As the user above me has already stated, you can also measure its pH. pH measures the concentration of Hydronium ions in a solution (H3O+) (it is NOT H+; H+ does not really exist by itself in this form). pH measurements range from 0 to 14 at the temperature of 298 K (25 centigrade). IF: pH < 7, it is acidic. pH = 7, it is neutral; neither acidic nor basic pH > 7, it is basic.

Acids are substances that?
Acidic substances, also known as acids, are quite numerous; some well known examples include nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and sulfuric acid. Vinegar, orange juice, and Coca Cola are also acidic.
What are 4 properties of a base?
Bases are substances that will restore the blue color of litmus after it has been exposed to an acid. They are electrical conductors and neutralize acids. Bases also feel slippery, because they neutralize the fatty acids of the skin, reducing friction.
Why does hydroxide act as a base in sodium hydroxide and as an acid in acetic acid?
Hydroxide is a Bronsted-Lowry base, meaning that it accepts protons from other substances. When sodium hydroxide ionizes, it forms the following: NaOH + H2O --> Na+ + OH- In the Arrehnius definiton, it increases the amount of hydroxide. In this case, sodium hydroxide does so. Also, when measuring pH, NaOH gives an alkaline reading, meaning that the pH is above 7. This is due to the decrease of hydronium and the increase of hydroxide. Sodium Hydroxide is not in Acetic Acid. Acetic Acid is CH3COOH (also known as HC2H3O2).
What relationship is described by the Arrhenius equation?
The Arrhenius equation describes a number of temperature dependent chemical reactions. These comprise not just the forward and reverse reactions, but also other reactions that are thermally influenced such as diffusion processes.
Which class of compounds does ammonia belong?
Ammonia is one of the polar covalent molecular compounds.It is also classified as a basea Bronsted-Lowry base dissolving in water to form OH-a Lewis base as it can donate a lone pair in forming an adduct.It is also termed a ligand as it forms adducts.
What can the effect of heat on a reaction be determined?
This effect is determined by experiments. Also Arrhenius equation can be used for a calculus.
What is the name of the Arrhenius acid that contains the ascorbate anion?
ascorbic acid (also known as Vitamin C)
