Lewis Acid and Base

Lewis Acids and Bases

Identify each of the compounds in the following chemical equation

Acid/Base Concepts

If the central element has less than 8 valence electrons around it then it is more likely to accept an electron pair to follow the octet rule.&#160;

16.1 Introduction to Acids and Bases | General Chemistry

In the 1920s, Gilbert Lewis proposed a new set of definitions for acids and bases.&#160;

When hydrogen is connected to an electronegative element such as P, O, N, S or halogens then it gains a partially positive charge, which makes hydrogen act as a Lewis acid.&#160;

Compounds that have lone pair(s) on a central element can act as Lewis bases.&#160;

Classify each species as either a Lewis acid or a Lewis base.
b. OH

Identify the Lewis acids and bases in the following reactions.a) H+ + OH– ⇌ H2Ob) Cl– + BCl3 ⇋ BCl4–c) SO3 + H2O ⇌ H2SO4

Since these metal ions&#160;accept negative electron pairs then some Lewis Acids may be positively charged.&#160;

Consider the reaction: SO2 + OH- S HSO3
-. Which reaction scheme shows the correct use of the curved arrow notation representing the
donation of an electron pair and the correct labeling of the Lewis acid and Lewis base? (LO 16.14)
(a) 
(b) 
(c) 
(d)

Identify the Lewis acid and Lewis base in each of the following reactions: 
(b) FeBr31s2 + Br-1aq2 Δ FeBr4-1aq2
