Solution
The correct options are AH3BO3 BB2O3
Diborane catches fire spontaneously upon exposure to air. When diborane (B2H6) reacts with oxygen (or air) burns spontaneously to produce a large amount of heat. Thus, the reaction is exothermic. The reaction which takes place is:
B2H6+3O2→B2O3+3H2O ΔH=–1976KJmol–1
Diborane react with water to form boric acid. B2H6+6H2O→2H3BO3+6H2
