    According to Bronsted-Lowery Concept, An Acid is a specie which can donate H⁺ and Base is a specie which tends to accept H⁺.

    In equation given as,

    HC l (g₎ + H ₂O (l₎ → H₃O⁺ (aq₎ + Cl ⁻ (aq₎

    In this reaction HCl is loosing proton and converting into conjugate base Cl⁻ and H₂O is accepting proton and converting into conjugate base H₃O⁺.

    Result:

    Acid = HCl

    Base = H₂O
