The contents of the Amphiprotic page were merged into Amphoterism and it now redirects there. For the contribution history and old versions of the merged article please see its history.

I am not competent to authoritatively edit this page but it looks as though "Since they can donate an electron" should be replaced by "Since they can donate a PROTON".

Just like single protons can be donated or accepted, same applies to electrons - transfers are not limited to electron pairs - also single electrons can be transferred between species.Ndzodan 06:15, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be much commonality between

They are related but not identical concepts. Since both articles are short, it would probably be best to merge them to a single article with 2 sections (at least) to make the differences clear. We also need specific examples of molecules which are one and not the other. Since amphoteric is the more common term (503K Google hits compared to 15K for amphiprotic), I suggest the article be named amphoteric, with a redirect from amphiprotic. Other opinions?
