Boron reacts with air to give

Boron reacts with air to give

Options

  1. AB2O3{B}_{2}{O}_{3}
  2. BBNBN
  3. CB2O3andBN{B}_{2}{O}_{3}andBN
  4. DNone

Correct answer

C. B2O3andBN{B}_{2}{O}_{3}andBN

Step-by-step solution

Boron& is a chemical element& with the symbol& BB~and atomic number~55. In its crystalline form it is a brittle, dark, lustrous metalloid; in its amorphous~form it is a brown powder.

Air contains O2,N2{O}_{2}, {N}_{2} in max proportions
4B+3O2→2B2O32B+N2→2BN4B + 3{O}_{2} \to 2{B}_{2}{O}_{3}2B + {N}_{2} \to 2BN

Boron reacts with air to give the mixture of B2O3andBN{B}_{2}{O}_{3}andBN.
