Explain briefly what makes the ions like H2N- a Lewis base.
H2N- has a double bond that allow it to accept electrons to achieve relative stability.
H2N- has 2 lone pairs in the central atom that allow it to donate electrons to achieve relative stability.
H2N- has excess hydrogens that allow it to accept electrons to achieve relative stability.
H2N- has an empty p-orbital in the central atom that allow it to accept electrons to achieve relative stability.
