The correct response is: An acid can donate protons to a base when they react.
To understand the relationship between acids and protons, we need to understand what an acid is and what protons are.
Acids are substances that can donate protons (H+) when they react. In other words, they release protons. Protons, on the other hand, are positively charged particles that can be found in the nucleus of an atom.
When an acid reacts with a base, the acid donates a proton to the base. This proton transfer is what characterizes the reaction between an acid and a base. So, an acid and protons are related in the sense that acids can release protons when they react with bases.
