The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

$ {B_2H_6 + HCl -> B_2H_5Cl + H_2}$ (a) $ {B_2H_6 + 6H_2O -> 2H_3BO_3 + 6H_2}$ (c) $ {Na_2B_4O_7 + H_2SO_4 + 5H_2O -> Na_2SO_4 + 4H_3BO_3}$ (d) $ { Ca_2B_6O_{11} + 4SO_2 + 11H_2O -> 2Ca (HSO_3)_2 + 6H_3BO_3}$

P-Block Elements

  • P block elements are those in which the last electron enters any of the three p-orbitals of their respective shells. Since a p-subshell has three degenerate p-orbitals each of which can accommodate two electrons, therefore in all there are six groups of p-block elements.
  • P block elements are shiny and usually a good conductor of electricity and heat as they have a tendency to lose an electron. You will find some amazing properties of elements in a P-block element like gallium. It’s a metal that can melt in the palm of your hand. Silicon is also one of the most important metalloids of the p-block group as it is an important component of glass.

P block elements consist of:
