Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Check whether the water be a suitable proton source to protonate the given compound.

Concept introduction:

Acids are the protonating source and bases are the protonated compound. Acid-base reaction depends upon the stability of reactants or products in their equilibrium reaction. If the reactant compounds are more stable, then the product formation ceased. Stability is inversely related to the strength of basicity or acidity. The more basic or acidic compound will react faster and form a stable form.
