For the first question, I think the correct answer among the choices listed is option B. Lewis acid is not a substance that donates a lone-pair of electrons rather it accepts lone-pair of electrons.

For the second question, the correct answer is the first option. Increasing the number of hydrogen ions will decrease the pH level making it more acidic.
