Question

Pick the odd one out

• A. Sodium borohydride reacts very slowly with cold water
• B. Sodium borohydride reacts very violently with cold water to produce $H_2$
• C. Solubility of sodium borohydride in water at ${25}^{\circ }$C is $10.05gm{L}^{-1}$
• D. Melting point of sodium borohydride is ${500}^{\circ }C$

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Sodium borohydride reacts very violently with cold water to produce $H_2$

Reaction of $NaB{H}_4$ with cold water is very slow. All other statements except (b) are correct.
