B is the correct answer so yeah i think this is 20 characters

The correct option is B.

A Bronsted Lowry [which is usually a Lewis base] base can donate a pair of electrons to the hydrogen ion. The proton is a Lewis acid and it can accept a pair of electrons.

A Lewis acid is a substance that can accept a pair of non bonding electrons while a Lewis base is a substance which can donate a pair of non bonding electrons.
