Diva · Answer 1

it produces 100% of the maximum number of possible hydroxide ions.

Explanation:

Bases are the species which furnish hydroxide ions in the solution or is capable of forming bonds with electron deficient species as they are electron rich species.

Strong bases are the bases which completely gets dissociated in the aqueous medium and produces 100 % of maximum number of the hydroxide ions which they are capable of.

Examples of strong base: - NaOH, KOH and LiOH.

Thus, the correct option is: - it produces 100% of the maximum number of possible hydroxide ions.
