Identify the correct statements from the following: (a) In Orthoboric acid, boron is in planar geometry. (b) In , boron has tetrahedral geometry. (c) Aqueous solution of borax is acidic.
- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
1. In orthoboric acid H3BO3, boron is sp2 hybridized and thus is in planar geometry. 2. In BCl3.NH3, Boron and Nitrogen (N)are both sp3 hybridized and the shape of the adduct is tetrahedral . 3. Combination of a strong base and a weak acid results in a salt which is basic in…
