  • Understanding Arrhenius Acids: Definitions and Examples
    An Arrhenius acid is a substance that, when dissolved in water, releases hydrogen ions (H+). Some examples of Arrhenius acids include:

    * Hydrochloric acid (HCl)

    * Nitric acid (HNO3)

    * Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)

    * Acetic acid (CH3COOH)

    * Citric acid (C6H8O7)

    These acids all release H+ ions when dissolved in water, making them acidic.
