Get the Based mug.An acid/base definition that suggests an Brønsted–Lowry acid is any molecule that can donate a proton, and a Brønsted–Lowry base is any molecule that accepts the proton. Protons can be referred to as H+ or "hydrogen ions," so if you see those terms used in a textbook they all mean the same thing. When a Brønsted–Lowry acid gives its proton away, it is "deprotonated" and can now accept a proton; now that it has become an acceptor, it is referred to as a conjugate base. The same rule applies to Brønsted–Lowry bases: once they gain a proton (are protonated), they are known as conjugate acids.
student: i'm a little confused with this functional group. the reading says that the carboxylic acid (COOH) group loses its proton, H, making the formula COO−. now that there's a space on the oxygen that's vacant, could the group accept a proton in the empty space? wouldn't that make the group a base?
teacher: yeah, acids turn into things known as conjugate bases when they lose hydrogen ions. the space where a proton used to be is now available for bonding, and the group or molecule becomes a proton acceptor/Brønsted–Lowry base
that's how you use the Bronsted-Lowry/Brønsted–Lowry Acid-Base Theory

Get the Bronsted-Lowry/Brønsted–Lowry Acid-Base Theory mug.Refers to the act of bypassing second and third base, but instead proceeding directly from first to fourth base; i.e., having sex with a girl right away, without bothering to tediously wade through the whole hugging/kissing/touchy-feely foreplay-crap in between.
The simplest and most effective/successful fourth-base shortcut procedure, in two easy steps:
(1) Find a hot chick and offer her a free foot-massage (first base).
(2) When the cutie obligingly plops herself down and gives you her feet, take one foot in each hand and start rubbing them, but also gradually raise them up high till her legs are back over her head and her butt is lifted off the ground, allowing you to slip off whatever lower garment(s) she's wearing. If she'd made no objections by that time, then the rest is easy; just kick off your own lower garments and enjoy (fourth base).
