The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for a volatile compound that burns with a green-edged flame. Volatile compounds are those that can easily vaporize at room temperature. 2. **Identifying the Compound**: The compound that is known to burn with a green-edged flame is triethyl borate. 3. **Structure of Triethyl Borate**: - Triethyl borate has the chemical formula \( B(OC_2H_5)_3 \). - In its structure, a boron atom is bonded to three ethyl groups and one oxygen atom. 4. **Properties of Triethyl Borate**: - It is a volatile compound, meaning it can easily convert into vapor. - When burned, it produces a flame that has a distinctive green edge, which is characteristic of certain boron compounds. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the answer to the question is triethyl borate, as it is the volatile compound that burns with a green-edged flame. ---
