One result of the Bronsted definitions is that for a given solvent, such as water, there is only a single scale of acid-base strength. Put another way, the relative strength of a set of acids will be the same for any base.

CONT

[...] les forces des acides et des bases ne sont pas indépendantes. Un acide très fort - selon Bronsted - admet une base conjuguée très faible et vice-versa. Un classement qualitatif de la force des acides ou de la force des bases permet une prévision - également qualitative - du degré auquel se produira une réaction particulière acide-base.
