Boron with hydrogen forms a number of hydrides which are known are boranes. These hydrides are classified into closoboranes and nidobarances. The simplest hydride of boron is diborane. Boron apart from having `(2c, 2e)` bonds also contain `(3c, 2e)` bonds.
Boron in diborane is___hydridised.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
