A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. The compound acts as a Lewis base.
<h3>What are the most common acid-base theories?</h3>
- Arrhenius: acids release H⁺ and bases release OH⁻.
- Bronsted-Lowry: acids donate H⁺ and bases accept H⁺.
- Lewis: acids accept electrons and bases donate electrons.
A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. Which term best describes this compound’s behavior?
- Lewis acid. YES.
- Arrhenius base. NO, because OH⁻ is not involved.
- Bronsted-Lowry acid. NO, because H⁺ is not involved.

Answer: option A. 2
Explanation: in the formula Sr3(PO4)2, the 2 behind (PO4) is affecting both P and O4. It means that we have P2 in the formula
A) Hg, or Mercury, is a liquid at room temperature. Hope this helps!!
We shall consider V, the volume and T, the temperature.
According to Boyle's Laws:

In our case:
The answer is 2 pairs. The carbon atom has 4 electrons and oxygen atom has 6 electrons. The purpose of shared electron is to get 8 electrons at the outer layer. So the carbon atom needs to share 4 electrons which is 2 pairs with oxygen to be stable.
