Define the an acid/base according to the Bronsted-Lowry and Lewis theories. Support with equation to illustrate an acid-base reaction for each theory, identifying them clearly. Also state the bond type formed in an Lewis acid-base reaction.

Bronsted-Lowry theory: Acid is a proton donor (H+) and base is a proton acceptor, i.e NH3(aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ NH4+ (aq) + OH-(aq) (In the left...
