- Bgives up a proton
- ✓accepts $OH^-$ from water releasing proton.
- Dcombines with proton from water molecule.
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
accepts $OH^-$ from water releasing proton.
c
Boric acid is an acid because its molecule accepts $\mathrm{OH}^{-}$ from water releasing proton
Boric acid is an acid because its molecule accepts $\mathrm{OH}^{-}$ from water releasing proton
