The compound that is not a lewis acid is(1)BF3(2)BeCl2(3)SnCl4

Answered by admin @



BF3 is known to be a strong Lewis acid that reacts instantly with the weak Lewis bases and it has an incomplete octet for accepting a lone pair from base molecules.

BeCl2 is also a Lewis acid due to its 
incomplete octet and ability to accept electron pairs to complete this octet, for which it readily reacts with the strong Lewis bases.

Similarly, SnCl4 is a 
weak Lewis acid, as it can accept an electron pair from a Lewis base.
