Explanation:

Nucleus of an atom consists of two sub-atomic particles.These are protons and neutrons. On the other hand, electrons are the third sub-atomic particles which revolve around the nucleus of an atom.

Protons have a positive charge whereas neutrons have no charge and electrons have a negative charge.

Due to positive charge of protons, nucleus of an atom acquires a positive charge.

Therefore, we can conclude that protons are the particles give the nucleus its positive charge.

Potassium hydroxide is classified as an arrhenius base because koh contains

mixas84 [53]

Answer: hydroxide ions

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion .

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

As KOH can give hydroxide ions on dissociation , it is considered as arrhenius base.

$KOH\rightarrow K^++OH^-$
