According to Arrhenius theory of acid and base, Acids are those substances which when dissolved in water produces protons, while, Bases are those substances which when dissolved in water produces Hydroxyl Ions.
Example of Arrhenius Bases:
NaOH ₍s₎ → Na⁺ ₍aq₎ + ⁻OH ₍aq₎
LiOH ₍s₎ → Li⁺ ₍aq₎ + ⁻OH ₍aq₎
Result:
The only negative ion produced in water when Arrhenius Base is dissolved is ⁻OH (Hydroxyl Ion).
The substance doesn't have a specific name. We just say that that substance is being reduced. Remember this mnemonic - OILRIG where "Oxidation is Loss, Reduction is Gain" of electrons.
<span>The gas that is formed is a different state of matter from the baking soda and lemon juice. The lemon juice has a different odor or smell than the gas. There is no color in the gas, while the lemon juice is yellow, and the baking soda is white.
