    For the Ketone - H+ reaction in the last example, you can draw the resonance structure and find it's more stable for the positive charge to be at the carbon and have 2 lone pairs on O, making O neutral and C (which is less electronegative) carry the positive charge.

    It's just a definition of acid and base There are other definition for acids and base such as: Arrhenius acid: produces H+ in solution Arrhenius base: produces OH-(hydroxide) in solution There is also the bronstead-lowry definition of acid and base but I'll be going off the point so Acorrding to the Lewis definition of an acid: they are electron pair acceptor, this is the reason why they are called electrophiles because they are normally cation, meaning they have less electrons so they accept the electron pair And for Lewis base definition: they are electron pair donars, they donate their electrons to the Lewis acid, this is the reason why they are called neutrophiles, because they are normally anion meaning they are electron rich, so they can give up their electrons and donate it
