What Are Lewis Acids and Bases? Ft. Professor Dave

Now that we've covered the Brønsted-Lowry model of acidity and basicity, let's take a look at a different model: the Lewis model. With ‪@ProfessorDaveExplains‬, we'll learn about how the Lewis model looks at electrons instead of proton transfer, and then we'll cover the concept of an acid-base adduct with the example of boron trifluoride. Finally we'll discuss how metal cations can act as Lewis acids.
