Answer:

An acid is a compound that donates hydrogen ions to a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the Bronsted-Lory theory where the acids are compounds which donates H+ to others while basis are compounds that donates OH-.

HCl + H2O → Cl- + H3O+

In Lewis's theory, acids accept e- while basis donates them.

In Arrhenius theory, acids are the compounds that has H in its formula while basis has OH
