in water.
According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates ions and a base is defined as a substance which accepts
ions.
Here water is donating ions, and thus act as acid and ammoia
is accepting
ions from water and thus is a base.
According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.
Thus base is a substance which accepts ions from acids.
