The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the reaction of diborane (B₂H₆) with a Lewis base (L) to form 2BH₃L, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants and Products**: - The reactant is diborane (B₂H₆). - The product formed is 2BH₃L, where L represents a Lewis base. 2. **Understand the Nature of Diborane**: - Diborane (B₂H₆) can undergo two types of cleavage: symmetrical cleavage and unsymmetrical cleavage. - Symmetrical cleavage leads to the formation of 2BH₃L. - Unsymmetrical cleavage leads to the formation of 1BH₂ and 1BH₄ units. 3. **Determine the Type of Cleavage**: - Since the reaction produces 2BH₃L, it indicates that symmetrical cleavage is taking place. - Symmetrical cleavage occurs in the presence of a bulky Lewis base. 4. **Identify Characteristics of Lewis Bases**: - A Lewis base is a species that can donate an electron pair. - In this context, we need to identify a Lewis base that is large and bulky to facilitate symmetrical cleavage. 5. **Evaluate the Given Options for L**: - We need to analyze the options provided to find the most bulky Lewis base. - The options include: - NH₃ (Ammonia) - small - CH₃NH₂ (Methylamine) - small - CH₃₂NH (Dimethylamine) - small - CH₃₂N (Dimethylamine) - bulky 6. **Select the Correct Lewis Base**: - Among the options, CH₃₂N (Dimethylamine) is the most bulky. - Therefore, L in this reaction is CH₃₂N. 7. **Conclusion**: - The Lewis base (L) that leads to the formation of 2BH₃L from diborane (B₂H₆) is CH₃₂N. ### Final Answer: L is CH₃₂N (Dimethylamine).
