    With the Bronsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases, acids donate protons to other substances. A monoprotic acid is an an acid that can only supply one proton (hydrogen). A triprotic acid is an an acid that can supply up to three protons (hydrogens). A triprotic acid get get its hydrogen ions by receiving them from a base.
