Explanation:
Carbon dioxide is a polar molecule whose positive center is on the carbon atom: This positive center is able to attract (and accept) the lone electron pairs present on the oxide ion (O2-). carbon dioxide is acts as a Lewis acid
A Lewis acid can accept a pair of electrons from a Lewis base. The boron in BF3 is electron poor and has an empty orbital, so it can accept a pair of electrons, making it a Lewis acid. A Lewis acid is defined as an electron-pair acceptor.
In CO molecule, there is a lone pair on both carbon and oxygen. The substance which can donate an electron pair are called Lewis base. It is clear that CO molecule can donate an electron pair and hence, it is a Lewis base. Also, CO can be BOTH a Lewis acid and base.
Oxygen is a Lewis base (that too a weak one), not a Lewis acid. REASON: It has lone pair of electrons, which can be donated to electron-deficient species (Lewis acids).
Methane is Neither a Lewis Acid or Lewis Base.

Answer:
A. fluorine, 1.79 moles
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of carbon = 87.7g
Mass of fluorine gas = 136g
Unknown:
The limiting reactant and the maximum amount of moles of carbon tetrafluoride that can be produced = ?
Solution:
Equation of the reaction:
C + 2F₂ → CF₄
let us find the number of the moles the given species;
Number of moles =
C; molar mass = 12;
Number of moles =
= 7.31moles
F; molar mass = 2(19) = 38g/mol
Number of moles =
= 3.58moles
So;
From the give reaction:
1 mole of C requires 2 moles of F₂
7.31 moles of C will then require 2 x 7.31 moles of F₂ = 14.62moles
But we have 3.58 moles of the F₂;
Therefore, the reactant in short supply is F₂ and it is the limiting reactant;
So;
2 moles of F₂ will produce mole of CF₄
3.58 moles of F₂ will then produce
= 1.79moles of CF₄

Answer:
Atoms are often more stable when bonded to other atoms
Explanation:
Like for example let's say ionic bonds..... Since one atom has to lose specific electrons to be stable and the other needs the electrons from the other atom to be stable.....
