(D) Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton ($H^{+}$ ion) donor,while a Bronsted-Lowry base is a proton ($H^{+}$ ion) acceptor.$HSO_4^{-} + H_2O \rightleftharpoons H_2SO_4 + OH^{-}$ (acts as a Bronsted base)$HSO_4^{-} + H_2O \rightleftharpoons SO_4^{2-} + H_3O^{+}$ (acts as a Bronsted acid)Since $HSO_4^{-}$ can both donate a proton to form $SO_4^{2-}$ and accept a proton to form $H_2SO_4$,it acts as both a Bronsted acid and a Bronsted base.
