Explanation:
Lewis Acids, Electrons can be accepted by an atom, ion, or molecule with an incomplete octet of electrons. Boron trifluoride and aluminium fluoride are two examples
The hardness and softness of lewis acid are used to classify it. Small, nonpolarizable atoms are referred to as "hard," while bigger, more polarizable atoms are referred to as "soft."
Hard acids include H+, alkali/alkaline earth metal cations, boranes, and Zn2+, to name a few.
Ag+, Mo, are soft acids
