Question

Lewis concept does explain the behaviour of

• A. Bases
• B. Salts
• C. Protonic acids
• D. Amphoteric substances

Hint:

The Lewis concept explains acids and bases in terms of electron pair exchange. Bases donate electron pairs, making them electron-pair donors.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understand the Lewis concept.
The Lewis concept defines acids as electron-pair acceptors and bases as electron-pair donors.
This concept can explain the behavior of bases, as they are capable of donating an electron pair.
Step 2: Identify the correct option.
According to the Lewis concept, bases donate electron pairs, while acids accept electron pairs.
Protonic acids (as per Brønsted-Lowry theory) and salts are not explained in terms of electron pair donation or acceptance.
