Answer: FALSE

Explanation:

An acid is a substance which donates H⁺ (hydrogen) ions when are added to water or any other solution. The amount of H⁺ions liberates per acid molecule defines the acidity of the acid like weak or strong. The base is a substance which donates OH⁻ ions (hydroxide ions ) in the solution or water.
