Is acid or base a H acceptor?

A base is an H+ (proton) acceptor, while an acid is an H+ donor. In the Brønsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases, acids donate protons during a reaction, whereas bases accept them. Thus, if you're considering H+ acceptance, it is the base that acts as the acceptor.

What theory describes an acid as a proton and a base as a proton acceptor?

The theory that describes an acid as a proton donor and a base as a proton acceptor is the Brønsted-Lowry acid-base theory. In this theory, an acid is defined as a species that donates a proton (H+), while a base is a species that accepts a proton. This theory is widely used in understanding and predicting acid-base reactions.

What is brownsted acid base theory?

The Brønsted-Lowry acid-base theory defines an acid as a proton donor and a base as a proton acceptor. Acids donate protons (H+) and bases accept protons in chemical reactions. This theory is named after chemists Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted and Thomas Martin Lowry.
