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.

An Arrhenius acid donates H+ ions
An Arrhenius acid donates H+ ions. (apex).
An Arrhenius acid is a substance that, when dissolved in water, increases the concentration of hydronium ions (H3O+). This type of acid typically donates a proton (H+) in a chemical reaction.
An Arrhenius acid is a substance that, when dissolved in water, increases the concentration of hydronium ions (H3O+). It typically donates a proton in a chemical reaction and can be classified by its characteristic sour taste and ability to turn litmus paper red.
No, HI (hydroiodic acid) is not considered an Arrhenius acid because it does not dissociate in water to release H+ ions as defined by the Arrhenius theory.
An Arrhenius acid is a substance dissociated in water and forming hydrogen ions H+.
An Arrhenius acid donates H+ ions
Salt and water are formed from the neutralization of an Arrhenius acid with an Arrhenius base.

Hydrofluoric acid is the Arrhenius acid that contains the fluoride anion.
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is an example of an Arrhenius acid. Arrhenius acids are substances that release hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.
