Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Arrhenius theory defines acids as substances that increase the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in solution and bases as substances that increase the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution. A neutralization reaction, according to this theory, involves the combination of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions to form water.
