Question

Which of the following statements are true for the reactions that precede them.
NOTE: Read the equations left to right


a) NH3 + H2O ↔ NH4 + + OH − NH3 is the Lewis base


b) HF + H2O ↔ H3O + + F − Water is the Lewis acid


c) C5H5N + H2O ↔ C5H5NH + + OH − Water is the Lewis base


d) Al(H2O)6 3+ + H2O ↔ H3O + + Al(H2O)5OH 2+ Al(H2O)6 3+ is the Lewis acid


e) NH4 + + H2O ↔ H3O + + NH3 Water is the Lewis acid

Answer 1

Lewis acids accept electrons from another substance.
Lewis bases give up electrons to toher substances.

a) true: NH3 donated electrons to H2O
b) false: water gave electrons to form F-
c) false: water accepted electrons from C5H5N
d) true:
e) false.
