A) \[AlC{{l}_{3}}\]
B) \[C{{l}^{-}}\]
C) \[Co\]
D) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{2}}\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Lewis acid is any species (molecule, radical or ion) that can accept an electron pair to form a co-ordinate covalent bond. Thus acid is an electron deficient species, e.g. \[B{{F}_{3}},AlC{{l}_{3}},SnC{{l}_{4}}\]etc. \[\underset{Lewis\,\,acid}{\mathop{AlC{{l}_{3}}}}\,+\,\underset{Lewis\,\,base}{\mathop{\,_{\bullet }^{\bullet }\overset{\bullet \bullet }{\mathop{{{\underset{\bullet \bullet }{\mathop{Cl_{\bullet }^{\bullet }}}\,}^{-}}}}\,}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{Adduct}{\mathop{C{{l}_{3}}Al\xleftarrow{{}}_{\bullet }^{\bullet }\overset{\bullet \bullet }{\mathop{{{\underset{\bullet \bullet }{\mathop{Cl_{\bullet }^{\bullet }}}\,}^{-}}}}\,}}\,\]
