Answer:

The basicity of an acid is the amount of hydrogen ions it can donate to a base or a base can accept when they react. The acidity of a base is the amount of hydrogen ions it can accept, or the amount of hydroxide ions it can donate.

An acid is a molecule or ion capable of donating a proton (hydrogen ion H+) (a Brønsted–Lowry acid), or, alternatively, capable of forming a covalent bond with an electron pair (a Lewis acid). The first category of acids are the proton donors, or Brønsted–Lowry acids.

Base, in chemistry, any substance that in water solution is slippery to the touch, tastes bitter, changes the colour of indicators (e.g., turns red litmus paper blue), reacts with acids to form salts, and promotes certain chemical reactions (base catalysis).
