In the Bronsted-Lowry concept, an acid is a substance capable of donating a proton, and a base is a substance capable of accepting a proton.
The conjugate base of an acid: (a) is the molecule or ion left after the acid accepts a proton; (b) is not stable under most conditions; (c) is a stronger acid than the original acid; (d) is the molecule or ion left after the acid donates a proton; (e) cannot itself be an acid.

 Acids   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Classify the following as Bronsted acids or bases (all in aqueous solution): HCl, NH HCl ionizes in water and donates its hydrogen ion (a proton) and is therefore a Bronsted acid.
The proton donated by HCl (as in the Bronsted definition) is an electron pair acceptor.
Although the Lewis definition is broader, the Bronsted definition deals specifically with the presence of hydrogen ions.

 Organic Acids and Bases
Bronsted acids are molecules that have the ability to donate a proton (in other words, a molecule which has an H+ that can be ripped off easily by a base).
Bronsted bases have the ability to accept a proton (or can readily pull off an H+ from an acid).
See Figure 1 for a general example of a Bronsted acid and base reaction.

 Relationship between Differential Heats of Adsorption and Bronsted Acid Strengths of Acidic Zeolites: H-ZSM-5 and ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
We have used microcalorimetry to measure the differential heats of adsorption of both a series of alkylamines and a series of substituted pyridines in H-ZSM-5 and H-Mordenite.
We use this data set to demonstrate that a self-consistent, quantitative Bronsted acidity scale for solid acids cannot be obtained from heats of adsorption of ammonia or pyridine or any other single reference base.
Deviations from the correlation curves for specific zeolite/adsorbate pairs can be used to infer how the strengths of Coulombic, hydrogen-bonding, or van der Waals interactions change with structure of either the zeolite acid or the adsorbate base.

Notice that a Bronsted acid/base reaction is a substitution (displacement) reaction, with the base (nucleophile) displacing another base (leaving group) when the proton is transferred (like an SN2 reaction).
A Bronsted acid cannot be an electron-pair acceptor without at the same time disconnecting from an electron pair.
A more rigorous consideration of Bronsted acids within the Lewis framework treats the Bronsted acid as a Lewis adduct between H+ and a base.

 Dissertations, Essays on JN Bronsted
In the simple formalism proposed independently by Bronsted and Lowry in 1923, an acid was defined as a proton donor and a base was defined as a proton acceptor.
In the simple acid-base reaction shown below, H3O+ is termed a Bronsted Acid, and HO- a Bronsted Base.
Many reactions in organic chemistry involve pre-equilibrium steps which include Lewis acid-base chemistry; an understanding of the Lewis concept will greatly aid in the ability to view these reactions logically and to predict likely reaction pathways and products.
