What theory of acids and bases do conjugate acids and bases belong to?
Bronsted-Lowry
What definition of acids and bases emphasizes of protons?
Bronsted and Lowry
Why was the Arrhenius theory of acids and bases modified?
It had so many limitations which was found out by the later scientists; Bronsted and Lowry, who came up with their theories afterwards

What theory of acids and bases do conjugate acids and bases belong to?
Bronsted-Lowry
What is an example of Bronsted-Lowry acid?
The Bronsted-Lowry theory is that acids and bases are defined by the way they react with each other. Liquid ammonia and acetic acid are examples.
What is an example of a bronstedlowry acid?
The Bronsted-Lowry theory is that acids and bases are defined by the way they react with each other. Liquid ammonia and acetic acid are examples.
Why do you think bases are often described the opposite of acids?
1) Bronsted-Lowry acids are proton donors. Bronsted-Lowry bases are proton acceptors. 2) Lewis acids are electron acceptors. Lewis bases are electron donors.
Is an example of a Bronsted-Lowry law?
A Bronsted-Lowry law doesn't exist; simply, the theory says that acids can donate hydrogen ions (protons) and bases accept hydrogen ions (protons).

What factors are used by the Bronsted- Lowry theory for acid and base chemistry?
The factors considered in the Bronsted-Lowry theory for acids and bases are the proton (H+) and the hydroxyl anion (OH-). An acid is considered something that donates or generates H+ and a base is considered something that donates or generates OH-
