H(3)BO(3) is....

`H_(3)BO_(3)` is.

A

monobasic and weak Lewis acid

B

monobasic and weak Bronsted acid

C

monobasic and strong Lewis acid

D

tribasic and weak Bronsted acid

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
1
`B(OH)_(3)+2H_(2)OhArr [B(OH)_(4)]^(-)+H_(3)O^(+)`
Boron completes its octet by accepting the `OH^(-)` from water molecule . So it is monobasic and water Lewis acid and not proton dono ( as it does not give proton ).
