Arrhenius and Lewis Acids
Is there any correlation between Arrhenius acids/bases and Lewis acids/bases?

Re: Arrhenius and Lewis Acids
Hi, basically this is for the distinction:
Arrhenius:
- acid: supplies H+
- base:supplies OH-
Lewis
- acid: serves as an electron acceptor
-base: serves as an electron donor
A lewis acid is a substance that accepts a electron pair to form a new bond, while an Arrhenius acid increases the H+ ion when added to the water.
