Question : 10
Total: 36
Do you expect the carbon hydrides of the type ( C n H 2 n + 2 ) to act as Lewis acid or base? Justify your answer.
Solution:
The type ( C n H 2 n + 2 ) is not a Lewis acid or a Lewis base because carbon atoms have a complete octet, therefore, hydrides behave as normal covalent hydrides.
