A Lewis acid is that which accept a lone pair. Eg :`BF_3` can accept a lone pair. A Bronsted acid is that which donate.a proton. Eg : HCl. So Lewis acids may not contain proton but can accept lone pair: Hence all Lewis acids are not Bronsted acids.
Which of the following is the strongest Bronsted acid ?
Which of the following is a Bronsted acid but not a Bronsted base ?
Which of the following can act as Lowry -Bronsted acid as well as base?
Explain why carboxylic acids are stronger acids than phenols?
Any species capable of accepting a lone pair of electrons acts as a lewis acid, where as a species capable of donating a proton acts as a Bronstead acid. Which of the following can act as a lewis acid as well as a lewis base ?
Which of the following can act as Lowry-Bronsted acid as well as base?
Any species capable of accepting a lone pair of electrons acts as a lewis acid, where as a species capable of donating a proton acts as a Bronstead acid. Which of the following is not a lewis acid ?
Which of the following can act both as Bronsted acid and Bronsted base? (i) HCO_(3)^(-) (ii) NH_(3) (iii) O^(2-) (iv) HCl
Which of the following species formed in acid base reactions can act as Bronsted buses as well as Bronsted acids?
