What is a Lewis acid-base reaction?

In the Lewis theory of acid-base reactions, bases donate pairs of electrons and acids accept pairs of electrons.

A Lewis acid is therefore any substance, such as the H+ ion, that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons. In other words, a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor.

A Lewis base is any substance, such as the OH- ion, that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons. A Lewis base is therefore an electron-pair donor.

The Lewis theory suggests that acids react with bases to share a pair of electrons, with no change in the oxidation numbers of any atoms.

1 electron has charge =1.602* 10⁻¹⁹ C
1 mole of electrons have 1.602* 10⁻¹⁹*6.02*10²³C = 9.64*10⁴ C/1mol

One ion Co²⁺   takes 2e⁻ to become Co⁰.
1 mol of Co²⁺  ions take 2 mole of e⁻ to become Co⁰, so
 0.30 mol Co²⁺  ions take mole of 0.60 mol e⁻ to become Co⁰

9.64*10⁴(C/1mol) *0.60 (mol)≈ 5.8 *10⁴ Coulombs.
Correct answer is C

Sodium hydroxide solution and hydrogen gas are produced from the reaction of water and sodium.

<h2>Reaction of sodium and water</h2>

We observe bubbles coming out of the water when the sodium reacts with the water because of the formation of hydrogen gas which is insoluble in water so it moves into the atmosphere.

<h3>Products of the reaction</h3>

Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution and hydrogen gas (H2). This chemical reaction is exothermic because huge amount of heat is release from the solution so we can conclude that sodium hydroxide solution and hydrogen gas are produced from the reaction of water and sodium.
