    What are X and Y respectively in the following reaction? \[{{B}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}+2KOH+2X+2Y+6{{H}_{2}}\]

    A)   \[{{K}_{2}}O,{{H}_{2}}O\]                          

    B)  \[{{H}_{2}},{{H}_{2}}B{{O}_{3}}\]

    C)  \[{{H}_{2}}O,KB{{O}_{2}}\]                        

    D)  \[{{B}_{2}}{{O}_{3}},{{H}_{3}}B{{O}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     Diborane \[({{B}_{2}}{{H}_{6}})\] dissolves in strong alkali solutions giving metaborates and evolving hydrogen. \[{{B}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}+2KOH+\underset{X}{\mathop{2{{H}_{2}}O}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\] \[\underset{\text{Pot}\text{.}\text{metaborate}\,\text{Y}}{\mathop{2KB{{O}_{2}}}}\,+6{{H}_{2}}\]
