Bronsted-Lowry Acids and Bases:
A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor. A Bronsted-Lowry base is a proton acceptor. In an acid-base reaction, a Bronsted-Lowry acid donates a proton to the Bronsted-Lowry base while the Bronsted-Lowry base accepts a proton from the Bronsted-Lowry acid.

Chapter 10 / Lesson 4Chemist Johannes Bronsted and scientist Thomas Lowry proposed that an acid should be defined as a substance that can donate a proton, while a base is any substance that can accept protons. American chemist G.N. Lewis proposed a different theory. Learn about three popular scientific definitions of acids and bases.
