Why h3bo3 is a Lewis acid?

Answers

Answered by mausumimitra1

Answer:

Since it accepts \[O{{H}^{-}}\]ion, it is a weak Lewis acid. - Although Boric acid contains 3 OH groups yet it can act as monobasic acid rather than tribasic acid. This is because it does not act as a proton donor rather it accepts a pair of electrons from OH- ions.
