Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
${B(OH)_3}$ behaves as a weak monobasic acid.
However, when cis-diol is added to the titration solution, it forms a very stable complex with ${[B(OH)_4]^-}$ formed by the forward reaction, thus effectively removing it from solution. This upsets the balance of the equation and the reaction proceeds completely to the right. Thus all the ${B(OH)_3}$ reacts with NaOH and it acts as a strong acid in the presence of the cis-diol
