Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The Brønsted-Lowry acid and base is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
According to Brønsted-Lowry theory, acids are classified as species that donate proton to any other species and bases are classified as species that can accept proton from any other species. Brønsted-Lowry acids are hydrogen donors and bases are proton acceptors.
