Question

CO2 can react with OH", forming HCO3. In this reaction,
which of the following is true?

1. the OH-ion acts as a Lewis acid, accepting an electron pair
from the CO2 molecule to form a coordinate covalent bond.
2.the OH-ion acts as a Lewis base, donating an electron pair to the CO2
molecule to form a coordinate covalent bond.
3.O the co, acts as a Brønsted acid, accepting a proton from the OH ion.
4.the CO2 acts as a Lewis acid, accepting a proton from the OHP jon.
5.O the OH ion acts as a Brønsted base, donating a proton to the co2 molecule.
