Question

Which of the following is least likely to behave as Lewis base?

A. $$N{H_3}$$
B. $$B{F_3}$$  
C. $$O{H^ - }$$
D. $${H_2}O$$
Answer :   $$B{F_3}$$
Solution :
$$B{F_3}$$  is an electron deficient species, thus behaves like a Lewis acid.
$$\because {\text{Bond}}\,{\text{order}}\, = \frac{{{N_b} - {N_a}}}{2}$$
