The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Reaction The reaction given is: \[ I_2 + I^- \rightarrow I_3^- \] Here, \( I_2 \) is iodine, and \( I^- \) is the iodide ion. ### Step 2: Identifying Lewis Bases and Acids - **Lewis Base**: A Lewis base is defined as an electron pair donor. - **Lewis Acid**: A Lewis acid is defined as an electron pair acceptor. ### Step 3: Analyzing Statement 1 **Statement 1**: "In the above reaction, \( I_2 \) is a Lewis base." - In the reaction, \( I^- \) (the iodide ion) donates an electron pair to \( I_2 \) to form \( I_3^- \). - Since \( I^- \) is donating the electron pair, it is the Lewis base in this reaction. - Therefore, \( I_2 \) is not acting as a Lewis base; instead, it is the species being accepted by the electron pair from \( I^- \). **Conclusion for Statement 1**: False. ### Step 4: Analyzing Statement 2 **Statement 2**: "Electron pair acceptor is a Lewis base." - This statement is incorrect because an electron pair acceptor is defined as a Lewis acid, not a Lewis base. - A Lewis base donates electron pairs, while a Lewis acid accepts them. **Conclusion for Statement 2**: False. ### Final Conclusion Both statements are false: - **Statement 1**: False (because \( I^- \) is the Lewis base). - **Statement 2**: False (because electron pair acceptor is a Lewis acid). ### Answer The correct option is that both statements are false. ---
