(E) B₂H₆ is planar molecule.

  Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

<p>B₂H₆ has 4 2 c -2e bonds and 2 3c-2e bonds.</p><p>Bridging (B-H) bonds have more value of bond- length then terminal (B – H) bonds</p><p>Bridging bonds are in one plane, but terminal bonds are in perpendicular plane.</p><p>Due to presence of (3c-2e) bonds, it behaves as electrons deficient and prone to get attached by &nbsp;lewis&nbsp; base.</p><p><span contenteditable="false"> <math> <mrow> <mn>3</mn> <mi>N</mi> <mi>a</mi> <mi>B</mi> <msub> <mrow> <mi>H</mi> </mrow> <mrow> <mn>4</mn> </mrow> </msub> <mo>+</mo> <mn>4</mn> <mi>B</mi> <msub> <mrow> <mi>F</mi> </mrow> <mrow> <mn>3</mn> </mrow> </msub> <munderover> <mo>→</mo> <mrow></mrow> <mrow> <mi>Δ</mi> </mrow> </munderover> <mn>3</mn> <mi>N</mi> <mi>a</mi> <mi>B</mi> <msub> <mrow> <mi>F</mi> </mrow> <mrow> <mn>4</mn> </mrow> </msub> <mo>+</mo> <mn>2</mn> <msub> <mrow> <mi>B</mi> </mrow> <mrow> <mn>2</mn> </mrow> </msub> <msub> <mrow> <mi>H</mi> </mrow> <mrow> <mn>6</mn> </mrow> </msub> </mrow> </math> </span>&lt;!- [endif]-&gt;&lt;!- [if gte mso 9]>&lt;xml&gt; <o:OLEObject Type="Embed" ProgID="Equation.DSMT4" ShapeID="_x0000_i1025" DrawAspect="Content" ObjectID="_1819201396"> </o:OLEObject>&lt;/xml&gt;&lt;!
