Definition: It is a chemical compound that consists of B and H-atoms. Has a molecular formula B2H6, which is the simplest boron hydrides. B2H6 is unstable at the room temperature with a sweet smell B2H6 will ignite rapidly at room temperature B2H6 mix well with the air forming explosive mixtures Production and Synthesis ( Source: Wikipedia): Industrial synthesis of diborane: Diborane is produced on a large scale by the reduction…

Definition Electron deficient compounds are those in which the total number of atomic orbitals on all the atoms of the compound is more than the total number of valence shell electrons. Boranes are electron deficient compounds: B = 1s22s22px12py2pz H = 1s1 B2H6 * number of orbitals from 2 B = 2 X 4 = 8     number of orbitals from 6 H = 6 X 1 = 6 Therefore,…
