An Arrhenius acid is a substance that, when dissolved in water, it increases the H+ H3O+ is the strongest acid thatconcentration. can exist in aqueous solution.

An Arrhenius base is a substance that, when dissolved in water, increases the OH- acids, meaning that they ionize

Brønsted-Lowry definition: acid/base behavior is described in terms of proton (H+)
transfer. HA + H2O ⇌ A- + H3O+
Lewis definition: acid/base behavior is described in terms of electron pair transfer or

sharing.
A Brønsted-Lowry acid is a
proton (H+) donor:

hydrogens in molecular
compounds are acidic. The
ability of a proton to be donated

The acid and the base are typically reactants while the conjugate base and the
conjugate acid are typically products. Strength of an acid is
a measure of [H+].
The pH scale was
defined to make it
easier to refer to
relative [H+] or [OH-]
values.
