    In the following reaction \[{{H}_{3}}N+B{{F}_{3}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}N{{H}_{3}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}B{{F}_{3}}\]

    A) \[B{{F}_{3}}\]is base,\[N{{H}_{3}}\]is acid

    B) \[N{{H}_{3}}\]is base,\[B{{F}_{3}}\]is acid

    C)  Both are acid

    D)  Both are base

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     According to Lewis base is electron donor and acid is electron acceptor. \[\underset{donor}{\mathop{{{H}_{3}}N_{\bullet }^{\bullet }}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\underset{acceptor}{\mathop{B{{F}_{3}}}}\,\] Hence,\[N{{H}_{3}}\]is base while\[B{{F}_{3}}\]is acid.
