its a lewis base as the oxygen atom in CH3OH contains a lone pair of electrons...which it can release
The methanol is a base not a acid
No, methanol is not an acid.It is an alcohol because its molecular structure contains alcoholic functional group,i.e, OH.While acids contains COOH functional group.
CH3OH is not a base and neither is it an acid. This is the chemical formula of methanol which is an alcohol.
Br- is a Lewis base.
Lewis base gives out a lone pair of electrons.N of NH3 has a lone pair.So it can act as Lewis base.

Lewis Base Guillermo Correa
CH3OH is the chemical formula of methanol, an alcohol - not a salt.
Lewis base gives out a lone pair of electrons.N of NH3 has a lone pair.So it can act as Lewis base.
PMe3 is a Lewis base(elctron donor).
It depends upon incoming reagent, if nucleophile attacks on methanol then it undergoes nucleophilic reaction and if electrophile attacks on methanol then it undergoes electrophilic reaction i.e Methanol reacts with both.... Student of A-level, XII, From Moro, SOMIA AKBAR MEMON
A Lewis base donates electron pairs.
NaF is a Lewis base. the F- ion has electron pairs that it can donate for bonding.
accoring to lewis concept it is base H^+(lewis acid) + H^2O(lewis base)---->(H^3O)^+
