Explanation / Answer
Ahrrenius definitions:
Ahrrenius acid = Will donate H+ to solution
Ahrrenius base = will donate OH- to solutions
B)
HNO3(aq) --> H+(aq) + NO3-(aq) , therefore, an Ahrrenius Acid
C)
HF(aq) <--> H+(aq)+ F-(aq) , therefore, an Ahrrenius Acid
D)
Ba(OH)2(aq) --> Ba+2(aq) + 2OH-(aq), therefore, an Ahrrenius Base
E)
HC2H3O2(aQ) --> C2H3O2-(aq) + H+(aq) therefore, an Ahrrenius Acid
