Answer:
Deprotonation is the removal of a proton, from a Brønsted–Lowry acid in an acid–base reaction. The species formed is the conjugate base of that acid. The complementary process, when a proton is added to a Brønsted–Lowry base, is protonation. The species formed is the conjugate acid of that base.
