Which sentence is true of all Brønsted-Lowry bases?
A. They can donate a hydrogen ion.
B. They can accept a hydrogen ion.
C. They can produce hydronium.
D. They are positively charged.
E. They are negatively charged.

Respuesta :

Answer: The option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry acid base theory:

Bronsted-Lowry acids are those chemical species which are hydrogen ion donors

Bronsted-Lowry bases are those chemical species which are hydrogen ion acceptors.

[tex]NH_3+H_2O\rightarrow NH_4^++OH^-[/tex]

Here, ammonia is a Bronsted-Lowry base and water is a Bronsted-Lowry acid. [tex]NH_4^+[/tex] and [tex]OH^-[/tex] are conjugate acid and conjugate base respectively.

So,from the given options, option (B) is the correct answer.
