KEY
The Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius introduced the theory of ionization and
used this theory to explain much about the behavior of acids and bases.
+ -
HCl (aq) ________________________
H (aq) + Cl (aq)
+ -
NaOH (aq) ________________________
Na (aq) + OH (aq)
Using the Arrhenius definition, classifiy the following examples as acids, bases, or
salts:
HBr ________________
acid KCl ________________
salt
Mg(OH)2 ________________
base H3PO4 ________________
acid
HCl ________________
acid HClO ________________
acid
KNO2 ________________
salt Al(OH)3 ________________
base
HFO4 ________________
acid KC2H3O2 ________________
salt
Ba(OH)2 ________________
base NaCl ________________
salt
