For the following reaction:

**Chemical Reaction:**

- Reactants: 
  - Acyl chloride (Cl-C=O with lone pairs on the oxygen)
  - Ethanol (CH3CH2OH with lone pairs on the oxygen of the hydroxyl group)

- Product:
  - An ester formation where ethanol is bonded to the carbonyl carbon (CH3CH2O-C=O with Cl and lone pairs on both oxygens, one negatively charged, one positively charged).

**Part: 0 / 2**

**Part 1 of 2**

**Instruction:**
Identify the Lewis acid and the Lewis base.

- Ethanol (CH3CH2OH with lone pairs) is the (Choose one) [Lewis base or Lewis acid].

- Acyl chloride (Cl-C=O with lone pairs) is the (Choose one) [Lewis base or Lewis acid]. 

**Notes:**
- A Lewis base is a chemical species that donates an electron pair.
- A Lewis acid is a chemical species that accepts an electron pair.
