All of the following can be used to define a base except__.

Answer: Out of all the options presented above the one that cannot be used to define a base is answer choice A) a hydronium ion donor in a reaction. As we already know a base is a compound that is a proton (H¹⁺) acceptor.

I hope it helps, Regards.
