This statement is false. A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton DONOR and the Bronsted-Lowry base is a proton ACCEPTOR, Based on the Bronsted-Lowry definition, acids and bases are being classified whether they can donate or accept and proton. Bronsted-Lowry acid is a PROTON DONOR because it donates a proton to H2O and for the Bronsted-Lowry base, it basically accepts a proton from acids such as HCl.
