What does an acidic substance release?
Acids and bases have many definitions, but for your question, these will do: Bases are proton (H+) acceptors. Acids are proton (H+) releasers.
Brønsted and Lowry defined a base as which of the following?
Acids are Proton donors Bases are Proton acceptors
Are bases positively charged?
Bases are proton acceptors, so they will be positively charged - but only in presence of proton donators like acids or water (which dissociates into H+ and OH-). -- 100% pure bases aren't charged.
How meany people in the UK are doners?
2262
How does the bronsted lowry theory define acids and bases?
Proton donor and proton acceptor respectively.
What are bases described as?
Bases contain the group hydroxyl: -OH.
Which subatomic particle can be described as having a relatively large mass?
Proton or neutron
Why are acids called proton donors?
Acids have the tendency to lose H+ atoms, which are also referred to as "protons" because of their positive charge. Another term used for acids is electron acceptor. Bases, on the other hand, are referred to as proton acceptors or electron donors.
How is the mass and charge of a proton best described?
Proton rest-mass . . . 1.67 x 10-27 kg Proton charge . . . . . +1 elementary charge (1.60 x 10-19 coul)
