Arrhenius Acid
Dissociates in water to increase the concentration of H+ in solution.
Arrhenius Base
Dissociates in water to increase the concentration OH– in solution.
Bronstead-Lowry Acid
Donates a proton (H+) to a base.
Bronstead-Lowry Base
Accepts a proton (H+) from an acid.
Lewis Base
Donates an electron pair to a Lewis acid.
Lewis bases contain atom(s) with at least one lone pair of electrons.
Lewis Acid
Accepts an electron pair from a Lewis base
Lewis acids contain atom(s) that are at least two electrons short of a full valence shell.
