Answer:

The term used is Arrhenius acid-base theory

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept in Arrhenius acid-base theory specifies a substance as an acid if it produces hydrogen ions in water. On the other hand, a substance will be a base if it produces hydroxide ions in water. An example of an Arrhenius base is sodium hydroxide, it dissociates in water forming hydroxide ions, the result of which is the increase in the concentration of these ions in the solution.
