Question

which of the following best describes a base according to the bronsted - lowry definition? a base will have a low ph when measured with a ph meter. a base will accept protons. a base will have a high ph when measured with a ph meter. a base will donate protons.

Explanation:

The Brønsted - Lowry definition states that a base is a substance that can accept protons (H⁺ ions). A low pH indicates an acidic solution, a high pH indicates a basic solution but this is related to pH measurement rather than the Brønsted - Lowry definition. A substance that donates protons is an acid according to Brønsted - Lowry.

Answer:

B. A base will accept protons.
