Group of answer choices
A. This is not a Lewis acid/base reaction
B. It is a Lewis acid/base reaction, and HF is the Lewis
acid
C. It is a Lewis acid/base reaction, and SbF5 is the
Lewis acid

C atom
C. a new C-O coordinate covalent pi bond is formed
D. a proton is transferred within the reaction-intermediate in
order to optimize formal charge distribution
