Can someone explain the Bronsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases?
Answers
In 1923, a broader definition of acids and bases was independently proposed by Danish chemist Johannes Brønsted (1879–1947) and English chemist Thomas Lowry (1874–1936). A Brønsted-Lowry acid is a molecule or ion that donates a hydrogen ion in a reaction. A Brønsted-Lowry base is a molecule or ion that accepts a hydrogen ion in a reaction. A hydrogen ion is commonly referred to as a proton, and so acids and bases are proton donors and proton acceptors respectively according to the Brønsted-Lowry definition. All substances that are categorized as acids and bases under the Arrhenius definition are also defined as such under the Brønsted-Lowry definition. The new definition, however, includes some substances that are left out according to the Arrhenius definition.
