Question

Borazine is isoelectronic with benzene but

more reactive. Why is it so ? Give its

reactions with H2O and HC1.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Borazine is more reactive as compared to benzene. Benzene (C6H6) which consists of C=C bonds is a non-polar molecule, whereas borazine (B3B3H6) having B-N bonds, due to electronegativity difference between B and N atoms (B is less electronegative as compared to N) is a pilar molecule (Bδ+-Nδ-).
