Question

Which student is right??

A. Student 1, because if the base reacts with an acid and produces water and a salt it is a Bronsted-Lowry base. B. Student 4, because a Bronsted-Lowry base always accepts a proton from an acid to form a conjugate acid. c. Student 3, because the pOH can be used to calculate the pH of the base. D. Student 2, because only Bronsted-Lowry bases will neutralize acids.

A group of students are trying to determine whether a base is an Arrhenius base or a Bronsted-Lowry base. Student 1 Does the base react with an acid to produce water and a salt? 2 Does the base neutralize an acid? 3 What is the pOH of the base? 4 Does the base accept a proton from the acid? Which student's question would be the MOST useful to determine this? (AKS 5g)
