Question

Explain Lewis concept of acids and bases with examples​

Answer 1

Answer:

In other words, a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor. A Lewis base is any substance, such as the OH- ion, that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons. A Lewis base is therefore an electron-pair donor. ... In the Lewis theory, an acid is any ion or molecule that can accept a pair of nonbonding valence electrons.
