Do you know the definitions of an acid and a base?
Lewis acid - An electron acceptor Lewis Base - An electron donator Bronsted acid - Donates Protons (H+) Bronsted Base - Donates Hydroxides (-OH)
Bronsted bases and acid fall under lewis acid and bases, they are just more specific to chemical compounds
So look at each molecules structure individual, would they donate electrons or accept electrons. For this you need to be able to recognize electronegativity in a molecule
or if it is a bronsted base or acid you just have to see if it has a Hydrogen or hydroxide that can dissociate from it
