When an acid, such as hydrochloric acid or HCl, is added to water, the hydrogen and chlorine split apart forming two ions: H+ and Cl-. The H+ is what makes the acid acidic -- in other words it is the active ingredient in an acid. And because a hydrogen atom only has one proton and one electron in its neutral state, when you have H+, it consists of nothing more than a proton.
A lone proton is extremely unstable and this is due to the very high density of charge. It has a single positive charge, but that charge is located on an extremely tiny object (the proton). When in water, the H+ ions will combine with water molecules immediately to form H3O+. You will never find free protons in a water solution -- all are combined with water to form H3O+. Now, that single positive charge is distributed over a much much larger volume because it can be spread out over several atoms in the molecule instead of one single proton (and remember, even a single atom is much much bigger than a proton). H3O+ is called hydronium, and is also referred to as a hydrated proton -- because it is really a water molecule with one extra proton.
A non-hydrated ion is an ion that exists in a solvent without water molecules attached, while a hydrated ion is an ion surrounded by water molecules forming a hydrated sphere. The presence of water molecules around a hydrated ion can affect its size, charge, and reactivity compared to a non-hydrated ion.
Yes, a hydrated proton (H+) can affect the heat flow in a reaction by participating in acid-base reactions that release or absorb heat. Additionally, the transfer of protons in a reaction can change the energy of the system and hence impact the overall heat flow.

It is a Bronsted-Lowery base because the carbonyl oxygens will readily accept a proton.
Proton.
A hydronium ion, H3O+, already has a full complement of three hydrogen atoms, so it cannot accept an additional proton. Adding another proton would violate the octet rule, destabilizing the molecule.
hydrated
If a proton, is a proton then it is a proton. (True).

That is the correct spelling of the word hydrated.

No, the charge of a proton is +1.
A proton has a positive charge.
