Answer #1

Question 1 &2

Answer

In coordination compounds metal can accept electron pair from ligand

According to Lewis acid base theory

Electron pair acceptor is called Lewis acid

Electron pair donor is called Lewis base

In coordination compounds, the metal atom is best discribed as Lewis acid and the ligand is best discribed as Lewis base

Thank you ?

All the best.
