Answer : The correct option is, (D) CO₂, BCl₃, and Fe³⁺
Explanation :
According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.
(a) 
It is a Lewis-acid because it can accepts electron pairs.
(b) 
It is not a Lewis-acid because it can not accepts electron pairs but it is a base because it can donates and accept hydrogen ion.
(c) 
It is a Lewis-acid because it can accepts electron pairs because it has an incomplete octet and an empty 2p orbital.
(d) 
It is a Lewis-acid because it can accepts electron pairs.
Hence, the ions which behave as Lewis acids are, CO₂, BCl₃, and Fe³⁺
The correct answer is that it is made of atoms that are covalently bonded together. Hope this helps.
Answer: Some are solid, some are gaseous, a few are liquid. Some are metallic: they have a peculiar lustre; some are coloured (like sulfur) or colourless. Some have a low density; some have a high density. Some are malleable and ductile; some are brittle. Some conduct electricity and heat well; some don’t.
Many metals tend to have structural uses. Nonmetallic elements less so.
Metals tend to have crystal forms featuring close-packed centro-symmetrical structures. Nonmetallic elements tend to have crystal structures featuring more open and directionally packed structures.
Some are especially toxic; some are essential to life; some are both depending on exposure level.
Most are stable; some are less so.
Some elements are highly reactive; some are almost inert (helium, neon, and argon may be completely inert in ambient conditions).
Many metals have basic oxides; quite a few oxides of nonmetallic elements form acids when they are dissolved in water. Some elements can go both ways.
There are many generalisations you can make about metallic and nonmetallic elements, and quite a few exceptions at the margins.
Explanation:
Answer:
Background
Solids – relatively rigid, definite volume and shape. In a solid, the atoms and molecules are attached to each other. ...
Liquids – definite volume but able to change shape by flowing. In a liquid, the atoms and molecules are loosely bonded. ...
Gases – no definite volume or shape
Its a suspension because a colloids ingredients cant be seen.
