Answer : The correct option is, (3) an Arrhenius acid
Explanation :
According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance which ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion
and a base is a substance which ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion
.
When one compound dissolves in water, then only positive ion produced in the solution is . This compound is classified as an Arrhenius acid.
Hence, the correct option is, (3) an Arrhenius acid

Explanation:
According to the Handerson equation,
pH =
or, pH =
Putting the given values into the above equation as follows.
pH =
5.0 = 6.0 + log \frac{\text{conjugate base}}{\text{acid}}[/tex]
= -1.0
or,
= 0.1
Therefore, we can conclude that molar ratios of conjugate base to weak acid for given solution is 0.1.
