Answer : A substance that can donate a pair of electrons to form a covalent bond is known as a(n) Lewis-base.

Explanation :

According to the Lewis acid-base theory,

Lewis acid : It is a substance that can accepts pairs of electrons to form a covalent bond.

Lewis-base : It is a substance that can donates pairs of electrons to form a covalent bond.

For example :

H^++OH^-\rightarrow H_2O

In this reaction, H^+ ion is Lewis-acid and OH^- ion is a Lewis-base. The OH^- ion donates electrons to H^+ ion to form H_2O.

Hence, a substance that can donate a pair of electrons to form a covalent bond is known as a(n) Lewis-base.

A substance that can donate a pair of electrons to form a covalent bond is known as a Lewis base. It is any substance that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons. The Lewis theory suggests that acids react with bases to share a pair of electrons with no change of oxidation numbers of any atoms.

An experiment reacts 20.4 g of zinc metal with a solution containing an excess of iron (III) sulfate. After the reaction, 10.8 g
quester [9]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 92.7%

Explanation:

Balanced Chemical reaction

                             3 Zn  + Fe₂(SO₄)₃   ⇒   2Fe   +   3ZnSO₄

Molecular weight

Zinc = 65.4 x 3 = 196.2g

Iron (III) = 56 x 2 = 112 g

Proportions  

                           196.2 g of Zinc ------------------ 112 g of Iron

                            20.4 g of Zinc  -----------------   x

                            x = (20.4 x 112) / 196.2

                            x = 2284.8/196.2

                            x = 11.65 g of Iron

% yield = \frac{10.8}{11.65}  x 100

% yield = 0.927 x 100

% yield = 92.7
