Answer: No I+ cannot be called a Lewis base.
Explanation:
According to Lewis Theory, it defines an acid as an electron-pair acceptor and a base as an electron-pair donor.
In terms of Lewis basicity, Iodide ion (anions) has the more readily available lone pair electrons for donation since iodide ion is less electronegative .
With the help of the net electronic structure one can understand the answer of the question, because we need to study the I+ ion (cation) structure.
Lewis acid is therefore any substance, that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons.
From the picture below I+ is most likely ready to accept electrons not to give from it 5s orbital to become stable.
The variable X is the effective nuclear charge, and it remains constant down a group.
Discussion:
The effective nuclear charge is referred to as the actual amount of positive (nuclear) charge experienced by an electron in a polyelectronic atom.
The effective nuclear charge experienced by an electron is otherwise called the core charge.
It is mathematically evaluated as the difference in the atomic number and the core electrons. and since elements in the same group have equal number of Valence electrons, the effective nuclear charge is constant down the group.
