Which of the following statements correctly describe the structure and bonding in diborane ()? — p Block Elements Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

Diborane features four terminal B-H bonds (2c-2e) and two bridged B-H-B bonds (3c-2e, banana bonds). The terminal hydrogens and boron atoms lie in one plane. Bridged bonds are longer and weaker than terminal bonds, so statement D is incorrect.
