Concept explainers
Interpretation: The movement of electron pairs and bond formation and breaking in the reaction is to be stated by using the Lewis structures and the Lewis acid and Lewis base in the given reaction are to be identified
Concept introduction: The Lewis structures represents all bonding and non-bonding electrons surrounding the atoms involved in a molecule. A molecule exhibits a particular geometry in space considering the steric hindrances of the bond pairs and the lone pairs of electron.
The compound that donates its electrons is a Lewis base and the compound that accepts electrons is a Lewis acid.
To determine: The movement of electron pairs, bond formation and breaking and the Lewis acid and Lewis base in the given reaction.
