For each of the given, the complete chemical equation for the acid and base that occurs has to be written and each using Bronsted language and Lewis language has to be described. Concept introduction: Acid: According to Bronsted-Lowry theory, a species which donates a proton in a proton transfer-reaction is said to be an acid. Base: According to Bronsted-Lowry theory, a species which accepts a proton in a proton transfer-reaction is said to be base. Lewis acid: A species which can form a covalent bond by accepting electron pairs for the species is said to be Lewis acid. Lewis base: A species which can form a covalent bond by donating electron pairs for the species is said to be Lewis base.

31) The F-ion can react with BF3, forming the BF4 anion. In this reaction,
A) the F-ion is a Brønsted-Lowry base, accepting a proton from the BF3 molecule.
B) the F-ion is a Brønsted-Lowry acid, donating a proton to the BF3 molecule.
C) the BF3 molecule acts as a Lewis base, donating an electron pair to the F- ion to form a
coordinate covalent bond.
D) the BF3 molecule acts as a Lewis acid, accepting an electron pair from the F-ion to form a
coordinate covalent bond.
E) the F-ion is a Lewis base, donating a proton to the BF3 molecule.
