$\underset{\mathrm{Hydrochloric}\mathrm{acid}}{\mathrm{HCI}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{Water}}{{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)}\to \underset{\mathrm{Protonic}\mathrm{acid}}{{\left[{\mathrm{H}}_3\mathrm{O}\right]}^{+}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{Chlorine}\mathrm{ions}}{{\mathrm{CI}}^{-}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}$

• Examples of protonic acid are Hydrochloric acid and Sulphuric acid.
