In the Brønsted–Lowry Definition, Acids (Proton Donors) and Bases (Proton Acceptors) Always Occur Together
- In the reaction between HCl and H2O, HCl is the proton donor (acid) and H2O is the proton acceptor (base).
- In the reaction between NH3 and H2O, H2O is the proton donor (acid) and NH3 is the proton acceptor (base).
