The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step-by-step, let's analyze the reactions provided in the question: ### Step 1: Reaction of NaBH₄ with I₂ - **Reaction**: \( \text{NaBH}_4 + \text{I}_2 \rightarrow X + Y + 2 \text{NaI} \) - **Explanation**: Sodium borohydride (\( \text{NaBH}_4 \)) acts as a reducing agent and reduces iodine (\( \text{I}_2 \)) to iodide ions (\( \text{NaI} \)). The by-products of this reaction include diborane (\( \text{B}_2\text{H}_6 \)) and hydrogen gas (\( \text{H}_2 \)). - **Identifying X and Y**: Here, \( X \) is \( \text{B}_2\text{H}_6 \) and \( Y \) is \( \text{H}_2 \). ### Step 2: Reaction of X with Ethanol - **Reaction**: \( X + \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{OH} \rightarrow Y + D \) - **Explanation**: When diborane (\( \text{B}_2\text{H}_6 \)) reacts with ethanol (\( \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{OH} \)), it forms tetraethyl borate (\( \text{C}_2\text{H}_5\text{O})_4\text{B} \)) and releases hydrogen gas (\( \text{H}_2 \)). - **Identifying D**: Here, \( D \) is tetraethyl borate, which has a characteristic green color. ### Step 3: Reaction of X with HCl - **Reaction**: \( X + \text{HCl} \rightarrow Y + E \) - **Explanation**: Diborane (\( \text{B}_2\text{H}_6 \)) reacts with hydrochloric acid (\( \text{HCl} \)) to produce hydrogen gas (\( \text{H}_2 \)) and \( \text{B}_2\text{H}_5\text{Cl} \) (dichloroborane). - **Identifying Y and E**: Here, \( Y \) is \( \text{H}_2 \) and \( E \) is \( \text{B}_2\text{H}_5\text{Cl} \). ### Step 4: Color of D - **Conclusion**: The color of tetraethyl borate (\( D \)) is green. ### Final Answer: - The color of \( D \) is green. ---
