Paragraph for question nos. 74 to 75
The chemical nature of boron is influenced primarilybyits small size and high ionization energy, and these
factors, coupled with the similarity in electronegativity of B, C and H, lead to an extensive and unusual
type of covalent molecular species. The availability of only 3 electrons contribute to covalent bonding
involving the four orbitals s, px, py and pz confers a further range of properties of Boron leading to
electron pair acceptor behaviour (Lewis acidity) and multicentre bonding.
