It is a lewis base because of its lone pair of electrons that can be "donated". If you draw/look at the lewis structure it is much easier to tell. Especially when the formula is not that of an ion!
Ph3 is acidic. Equivalent to lemon juice. Ph0 is super acidic and 7 is neutral.
An acid accepts an electron pair from a base.
PH3 is an acid.It is a flammable substance.
CH3OH is a Lewis base.
Br can act as a Lewis base by donating its lone pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with a Lewis acid.

CH3OH is a Lewis base.
It contains a lone pair of electrons. Hence, it can donate it thereby ,its a base. The tendency to donate the electron pairs can determine the basicity of a base. Therefore, PF3 is less basic than PH3.
Br can act as a Lewis base by donating its lone pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with a Lewis acid.
In a Lewis acid-base reaction, a Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor) reacts with a Lewis base (electron pair donor) to form a coordination complex. The Lewis acid accepts electron pairs from the Lewis base, resulting in the formation of a coordinate covalent bond between the two species.
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.
Hydrazine can act as both a Lewis base and a Lewis acid. As a Lewis base, it can donate a lone pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with a Lewis acid. As a Lewis acid, it can accept a lone pair of electrons from a Lewis base to form a coordinate covalent bond.
PMe3 is a Lewis base(elctron donor).
Cl can act as both a Lewis acid and a Lewis base depending on the reaction it is involved in. As a Lewis acid, Cl can accept an electron pair and form a coordinate covalent bond. As a Lewis base, Cl can donate an electron pair to form a bond.
PH3 (phosphine) is considered to be a weaker base compared to NH3 (ammonia) because the electronegativity of phosphorus is greater than nitrogen, making the lone pair on phosphorus less available for donation. This results in NH3 being a stronger base than PH3.
