3.
is a Brønsted-Lowry acid.

Solute is the dispersed phase of the solution and is present in small quantities whereas solvent is the dispersion medium and is present in large proportions. carbonated drinks contain carbon dioxide dissolved in water and thus carbon dioxide is the solute and water is the solvent which together form a solution.
3. Bronsted lowry acid is a substance which donates
. Bronsted lowry base is a substance which accepts
.
Arrhenius acid is a substance which donates
when dissolved in water.Arrhenius base is a substance which donates
when dissolved in water.
Lewis acid is a substance which accepts electrons. Lewis base is a substance which donates electrons.
Thus as acetic acid donates
, it is considered as Bronsted-Lowry acid.
