What is a true Arrhenius acid?

Answer 1

it produces hydrogen ion

Answer 2

An Arrhenius acid increases [H+] in the solution.

Answer 3

An acid, as defined by Arrhenius, is a substance which releases hydrogen ions (H+) in solution.

Eg hydrochloric acid (HCl) dissociates to give H+ ions and Cl- ions and so is an acid.

A base, according to Arrhenius, is a substance which releases hydroxyl ions (OH-) in solution.

Eg sodium hydroxide (NaOH) dissociates to give Na+ ions and OH- ions, and so is a base.
