ALigand
BComplex
CBuffer
DAdduct
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Adduct
1. The Lewis scheme names the reactants and the product.
2. The electron pair donor is a Lewis base and the acceptor is a Lewis acid.
3. The product of the reaction is a Lewis acid-base adduct.
4. The bond formed is a coordinate covalent bond.
