Answer:   A. a substance that is alkaline

Explanation: Base is defined as the substance which is alkaline in nature.

It is the species which can accept a proton because of the lone pair of electrons or vacant orbitals present on them.

It is that species which donates its OH- ions to the solution (Arrhenius Base)

It is a substance which has a high pH value as low pH values belongs the the acidic species.

A species which can donate its H+ ion is known as Acidic species.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Explanation:

Group one:

The elements of group one shows +1 charge because these all are metals and lose their one valance electron.

Hydrogen lithium sodium potassium rubidium cesium francium

Group 2:

The elements of group two shows +2 charge because these all alkali metals and lose their two valance electrons.

beryllium magnesium calcium strontium barium radium

Group 3:

The elements of group three-B shoes +3 charge by losing three valance electrons.

Scandium yttrium lanthanum actinium

Group 4:

The elements of group 4th A and 4th B lose four electrons or gain four electrons to complete the octet and shows +4 or -4 charge.

Group 5:

Group 5th elements gain three electrons and shows -3 charge to complete the 8 electrons. (octet).

It involve the elements of group 5th A.

Group 6:

The elements of group 6A gain two electrons to complete the octet and shows -2 charge.

Group 7:

The elements of group 7A gain one electron to complete the octet and shows -1 charge.

Group 8:

The elements of group 8A are noble gases and have complete octet. That's why shows 0 charge.
