| 31. | Scandium triflate is used as a reagent in organic chemistry as a Lewis acid.
|
| 32. | Without the Lewis acid, only the 14-membered dimer ring was observed.
|
| 33. | This phenomenon gives rise to the wide field of Lewis acid-base chemistry.
|
| 34. | Lewis acid activation is essential for complete reaction.
|
| 35. | In common with the other tetrahalides, TiF 4 is a strong Lewis acid.
|
| 36. | The mechanisms are difficult to distinguish because many Lewis acids can behave as oxidants.
|
| 37. | Zinc chloride is a mild lewis acid with a solution pH of about 4.
|
| 38. | If an oxidizing agent gains electrons, does that make it a Lewis Acid?
|
| 39. | Curium ions are hard Lewis acids and thus form most stable complexes with hard bases.
|
| 40. | The pentachloride and pentafluoride are Lewis acids.
