Boron is unable to form BF63– ion due to:
1. Non-availability of s orbitals
2. Non-availability of d orbitals
3. Non-availability of f orbitals
4. None of the above
Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): | Boric acid is considered a weak acid. |
Reason (R): | Boric acid is not able to release H+ ions on its own. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | (A) is false but (R) is true. |
