Answer:

Giving away protons to the water molecules

Explanation:

When acids are mixed with water the following reaction takes place:

H^+(aq) + H2O(l) ------> H3O^+(aq)

Hence when acids are added to water, acids donate a proton to water to form the oxonium ion H3O^+ by coordinate covalent bonding. Note that acids contain the hydrogen ion H^+
