Delving into Acid-Base Theories 

Create a table that clearly compares and contrasts the Arrhenius, Brønsted-Lowry, and Lewis definitions of acids and bases. Include the following columns:

• Definition of an Acid

• Definition of a Base

• Key Species Involved (e.g., H⁺, OH⁻, proton donors/acceptors, electron pair acceptors/donors)

• Strengths of the Theory

• Limitations of the Theory

• One example reaction that fits this theory.
