Arrhenius theory could not explain the acidic and basic behaviour in non-aqueous solutions.

Arrhenius theory could not explain the acidic and basic behaviour in non-aqueous solutions. Correct Answer true

The major drawback of Arrhenius theory is that it fails to explain the acidic and basic behaviour in non-aqueous solutions. It cannot explain the acidic character of aluminium chloride, Boron fluoride and basic character of NH3 PH3.
