Which of the following is least likely to behave as Lewis acid?

A

`OH^(-)`

B

`H_(2)O`

C

`NH_(3)`

D

`BF_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`BF_(3)` has incomplete octet and will act as Lewis acid. `NH_(3)` has lone pair of electron available for donaton and thus Lewis base.
