What is a Lewis acid?
A Lewis acid accepts an electron pair from a base. ---APEX--
What is the difference between acid and Lewis acid?
An acid is the old term used back in the day to categorize that would release a free positively charged hydrogen atom when dissolved in water. A Lewis acid is a substance that will except an electron pair from a Lewis base, not limited to h2o as the solvent. Though every substance that fit the original definition of an acid is also a Lewis acid, not every Lewis acid is a traditional acid, like AlCl3 and BF3.
Is Br a Lewis acid or Lewis base?
Br- is a Lewis base.
Is SF6 a Lewis acid or base?
Sf6 acts as an lewis acid............
Is H2O a Lewis acid or base?
Being amphoteric water can react both: Lewis acid and Lewis base.

Is calcium oxide is a Lewis acid or Lewis base?
Lewis Base Guillermo Correa
Is Cl a Lewis acid or Lewis base?
Neither, it's a salt.
What is a Lewis base acid?
Lewis acid is an electron acceptor / Lewis base is an electron donor. It is helpful to use this definition of acid and base in (1) organic chemistry (2) also when there are no Hydrogens present in the molecule. BF3 is a Lewis acid it seeks out and can accept electrons.
PMe3 Lewis acid or base?
PMe3 is a Lewis base(elctron donor).
Is H2O a Lewis acid or base?
Being amphoteric water can react both: Lewis acid and Lewis base.
Is SO3 a Lewis base or Lewis acid?
I think it is acid, because there is a question that asks the acid site of SO3.
What happens in a Lewis acid base reaction?
an acid accepts an electron pair from a base
What happens in a Lewis acid-base reaction?
An acid accepts an electron pair from a base.
