Question on: SS2 Chemistry - Acids, Bases, and pH
According to the Lewis theory, an acid is defined as a substance that:
Â
Accepts a proton (H+)
Â
Donates a proton (H+)
Â
Dissociates into positive and negative ions
Â
Accepts a pair of electrons
According to the Lewis theory, an acid is a substance that can accept a pair of electrons during a chemical reaction. This theory broadens the definition of acids beyond proton transfer, emphasising the role of electron pair acceptance.
