Explanation:

Limitations of Lewis Concept of Acids and Bases:

All acid-base reactions do not involve co.ordinate bond formation. Lewis concept no don explain the behavior of well known protonic acids like HCl, H2SO4, etc. which do not form coordination bonds with bases. ... The catalytic activity of many acids is due to proton (H+).

Answer:

limitation of Lewis theory for acid and base are as follows:-

#All acid-bace reactions do not involve co.ordinate bond formation.

#Lewis concept Donot explain the behaviour of well known protonic acid.

e.g.HCl , H2SO4.etc.which do not formed coordinate bonds with bases.

therefore according to the Lewis ,these are not regarded as acids.

#This theory fail to explain relative strengths of acids and bases.

#Actually, the formation of coordination compound is a slow process.but the acid base reaction is a fast process.This behaviour cannot be explained on the bases of the Lewis concept.

#the catalytic of many acids is due to proton(H+).Lewis acids do not have protons hence Lewis acids do not process catalytic property.
