Diborane \) reacts independently with and to produce :

Diborane \( \left(B_{2} H_{6}\right) \) reacts independently with \( O_{2} \) and \( H_{2} O \) to produce :

  • A. \( H B O_{2} \) and \( H_{3} B O_{3} \)
  • B. \( H_{3} B O_{3} \) and \( B_{2} O_{3} \)
  • C. \( B_{2} O_{3} \) and \( H_{3} B O_{3} \)
  • D. \( B_{2} O_{3} \) and \( \left[B H_{4}\right]^{-} \)

Step-by-step solution

Diborane (B2H6) reacts with O2 to form B2O3 and H2O, and with H2O to form H3BO3 and H2. Thus, the products are B2O3 from reaction with O2 and H3BO3 from reaction with H2O.
