Which of the following is/are Lewis acid?
BeCl2
AlCl3
Both 1 and 2
Ca
As we have learnt,
The chlorides of Berryllium and Aluminium both have a bridged chloride structure in vapour phase. These chlorides are soluble in organic solvents and are strong lewis acids
Hence, BeCl2 and AlCl3 are both Lewis acids.
Therefore, option(3) is correct.
