Because the alkali metals are the group 1 metals, they have only 1 valence electron that they want to lose, and the halogens are the group 17 nonmetals, they want to gain 1 valence electron to become stable.

Answer: F.    Electron pair acceptor

Explanation:

A Lewis acid can be properly defined as any substance such as  H+ (hygrogen ion) that can accept a pair of electron.

While a Lewis base is any substance such as (OH-) that can donate a pair of electron.

In the neutralization reaction between an acid ( H+ ) and a base (OH-). Hydrogen ion (H+ ) is the Lewis acid because it accepts an electron pair from (OH-).

Other examples of Lewis acid are;  Mg2+, K+

Students asked to measure the temperature of a reaction beaker recorded the following temperatures. 103.7°C, 108.4°C, 105.8°C, 1
Nata [24]

There are two terms

a) accuracy : it relates to the exactness of an answer that how an answer is close to the actual answer or actual reading

So 104.6 is accurate

b) Precision : This is related to the closeness of different readings with each other

The first reading is 103.7 and the second one is 108.4  so the second reading is quite different from the first reading so it cannot be called as precised

Again 105.8 has good difference from the second reading hence again this is not precised

However the last reading 104.6 is quite near to 105.8 so 104.6 can be called as precise
