Question

Consider following three statement(s) :

(i) All the σ - bonds are in same plane

(ii) All bonds are in same plane

(iii) nodal plane of all the π - bonds are in same plane

In which of the following molecule at least two statements are true :

TestHub · Accepted Answer

borazine is a planar hexagonal ring structure. In this molecule, all σ-bonds lie in the same plane due to sp² hybridization of B and N atoms. The π-electron cloud is delocalized above and below the plane, maintaining overall planarity. Hence statements (i) and (ii) are correct. Therefore, the correct option is (B).
