Question

Difference between lewis base and bronsted base

Answer 1

Answer:

Acids and Bases: Lewis vs Bronsted.

There are two complementary definitions of acids and bases that are important: the Bronsted (or Bronsted-Lowry) definition: an acid is a proton (H+ ion) donor, and a base is a proton acceptor; the Lewis definition: an acid is an electron acceptor, and a base is an electron donor.

Answer 2

Answer:

DIFFERERNCE

According to the Bronsted definition:

Acid: is an #H^+# donor.

Base: is an #H^+# acceptor.

Example:

Bronsted Acid: #HCl->H^++Cl^-#

Bronsted Base: #NH_3+H^(+)->NH_4^+#

According to the Lewis definition:

Acid: is an electron lone pair acceptor.

Base: is an electron lone pair donor.

Example:

Lewis Acid: #AlCl_3#

Lewis Base: #H_2O#
