The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the reactions of BF3 (Boron Trifluoride) and CCl4 (Carbon Tetrachloride) with water. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants**: We have two compounds, BF3 and CCl4, that we will react with water (H2O). 2. **Analyze CCl4**: - CCl4 is a non-polar molecule and does not have any vacant orbitals. - When CCl4 is mixed with water, there is no reaction because water cannot attack CCl4. - Therefore, CCl4 does not produce any products when reacted with water. 3. **Analyze BF3**: - BF3 is a Lewis acid and has an empty p orbital on the boron atom. - When BF3 reacts with water, the water molecule can donate a pair of electrons to the boron atom, forming a bond. - The reaction can be represented as: \[ BF_3 + H_2O \rightarrow HBF_4 \] - Additionally, if we consider the complete hydrolysis of BF3, it can also produce boric acid (H3BO3): \[ 4 BF_3 + 3 H_2O \rightarrow H_3BO_3 + 3 HBF_4 \] 4. **Conclusion**: - From the above analysis, we conclude that when BF3 reacts with water, it produces HBF4 (Hydrofluoric acid) and potentially H3BO3 (Boric acid) as well. - CCl4 does not produce any products as it does not react with water. ### Final Answer: - BF3 reacts with water to produce **HBF4**. - CCl4 does not react with water and produces **no product**.
