2. Bronsted and Lowry explain acid and base based on their actions in a chemical reaction. Their theory is the development of Arrhenius theory.
3. ACID SUBSTANCE THAT CAN LOSE OR DONATE PROTON (the proton can be removed) ANYTHING THAT GIVES UP H+ IN A REACTION
4. BASE SUBSTANCE THAT HAS THE ABILITY TO GAIN OR ACCEPT PROTON (remove proton from an acid) ANYTHING THAT TAKES ON H+ IN A REACTION
5. In conclusion, there is only one requirement for an acid base reaction, which is: “ONE SUBSTANCE MUST PROVIDE A PROTON WHILE ANOTHER SUBSTANCE MUST RECEIVE THE SAME PROTON AT THE SAME TIME”
6. : Finally, we have a conjugate acid-base pair when two molecules are formed by the transfer of proton Conjugate base: the particle that remains when a proton is removed from the acid Conjugate acid: the product of a particle when it receives a proton from the acid
7. THEREFORE, a reaction must have an acid, a base, a conjugate acid and a conjugate base
