Answer:
Carbon hydrides (CnH2n+2) being electron-precise hydrides (i.e. having exact numbers of electrons required to form covalent bonds) do not have a tendency to either gain or lose electrons. Hence they do not act as Lewis acids or Lewis bases.

Answer:
Carbon hydrides of the type Cn H2n+2 are electron precise hydrides. Because they have atom with exact number of electrons to form covalent bonds. Thus, they do not behave as Lewis acid or base. Since they have no tendency to accept or lose electrons.
