protonic
Of positive ions
Protonic means relating to or involving protons—the positively charged particles in atomic nuclei.
The term appears in chemistry and physics contexts: protonic conductivity, protonic acids.
A protonic acid donates protons to other molecules, the classic definition of an acid in chemistry.
