Solution

The correct options are
B XB2H6,YNaI
C Z=H2,P=NaF
D Q=3Li[AlF4]
X=B2H6,Y=NaI,Z=H2,P=NaF,Q=3Li[AlF4]
Sodium borohydrate react with iodine to produce diborane, sodium iodide and hydrogen.
The reaction proceeds in the digilyme (MeOCH2CH2)2O.
2Na[BH4]+I2(MeOCH2CH2)2O−−−−−−−−−−B2H6+2NaI+H2
Thus, X=B2H6,Y=NaI,Z=H2
Boron trifluoride reacts with sodium hydride to give diborane and sodium fluoride. This reaction takes place at a temperature around 200oC.
2BF3+6NaH 200oC−−−−B2H6+6NaF
Thus, P=NaF
Boron trifluoride on reaction with Lithium aluminium hydride produces diborane, lithium fluoride and aluminium fluoride.
4BF3+3LiAlH42B2H6+3Li[AlF4]
Thus, Q=Li[AlF4]
