Arrhenius defines acids as substances that produce H+ ions in water, and bases as substances that produce OH- ions in water. Bronsted-Lowry defines acids as proton (H+) donors and bases as proton acceptors, regardless of the presence of water. This broader definition allows for the characterization of acids and bases in non-aqueous solutions.
