Boric acid `(H_(3)BO_(3))` prepared from

A

borax

B

boron trihalides

C

colemanite

D

all of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
By treating a hot concentrated solution of borax with hydrocloric or sulhuric acid:
`Na_(2)B_(4)O_(7) + H_(2)SO_(4) + 5H_(2)O rarr 4H_(3)BO_(3) + Na_(2)SO_(4)`
By the hydrolysis of boron trihalides :
`BCl_(3) + 3H_(2)O rarr H_(3)BO_(3) + 3HCl`
By passing sulphurr dioxide through the solution of colemanite in boiling water.
`Ca_(2)B_(6)O_(11) + 4SO_(2) + 11H_(2)O rarr 2Ca(HSO_(3))_(2) + 6H_(3)BO_(3)`
