Choose the correct statements among the following regarding $B_{2} H_{6}$ and $Al_{2} Cl_{6}$

Answer:

A, C

Solution:

diborane and aluminium chloride dimer are isostructural but not isoelectronic

In diborane, bridging involves 3c–2e bonds, but in Al2Cl6 it is coordinate bonding, not true 3c–2e

Both B and Al are sp³ hybridised in their dimers

Combustibility is not common to both
