The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is correct among the given options, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Option 1 **Statement:** B2S6.2N3 is known as inorganic benzene. **Analysis:** - Inorganic benzene typically refers to compounds like B3N3S6, which is indeed analogous to benzene (C6H6) but consists of boron, nitrogen, and sulfur. - The given formula B2S6.2N3 does not correspond to the commonly accepted structure of inorganic benzene. **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 2: Analyze Option 2 **Statement:** Boric acid is a protogenic acid. **Analysis:** - Boric acid (H3BO3) does not ionize in water to release protons (H+). Instead, it acts as a Lewis acid by accepting hydroxide ions (OH-) to form B(OH)4-. - Therefore, it does not behave as a protogenic acid, which is defined as a substance that donates protons. **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 3: Analyze Option 3 **Statement:** Beryllium exhibits a coordination number of 6. **Analysis:** - Beryllium (Be) typically has a coordination number of 4 in its compounds due to its electron configuration and bonding characteristics. - It does not exhibit a coordination number of 6. **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. ### Step 4: Analyze Option 4 **Statement:** Chlorides of both beryllium and aluminum have a bridged chlorine structure in their solid state. **Analysis:** - Beryllium chloride (BeCl2) in the solid state exists in a polymeric form with a bridged structure. - Aluminum chloride (AlCl3) dimerizes to form Al2Cl6, which also has a bridged structure. - Both compounds exhibit a bridged chlorine structure in their solid states. **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. ### Final Answer The correct statement is: **Chlorides of both beryllium and aluminum have a bridged chlorine structure in their solid state.** ---
