Carbon hydrides of the type, `C_(n)H_(2n+2)` do not act as Lewis acid or Lewis base. They behave as normal covalent hydrides bacause

Explanation

No. This is because the hydrides of carbon of the type `C_(n)H_(2n + 2)` are electron-precise hydrides and possess exact number of electrons required to form necessary covalent lx>nds. Thus, they neither possess a deficiency of electrons nor an excess of electrons as lone pairs. Hence, they are unable to act as Lewis acid or Lewis base.
