    Which one of the following is the correct statement?

    A) \[{{B}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}.2N{{H}_{3}}\] is known as 'inorganic benzene?.

    B) Boric acid is a protonic acid.

    C) Beryllium exhibits coordination number of six.

    D) Chlorides of both beryllium and aluminium have bridged chloride structures in solid phase.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] The correct formula of inorganic benzene is \[{{B}_{3}}{{N}_{3}}{{H}_{6}}\] so [a] is incorrect statement Boric acid \[({{H}_{3}}B{{O}_{3}}\]or\[\underset{OH}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{\overset{OH}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{B}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-OH\]  is a lewis acid so [b] is incorrect statement. The coordination number exhibited by beryllium is 4 and not 6 so statement [c] is incorrect. Both \[BeC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[AlC{{l}_{3}}\] exhibit bridged structures in solid state so [d] is correct statement.
