<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.
This law states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form. This also means that total number of individual atoms on reactant side must be equal to the total number of individual atoms on the product side.
The chemical equation for the reaction of elemental boron and oxygen gas follows:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
4 moles of elemental boron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of diboron trioxide.
The chemical equation for the reaction of diboron trioxide and water follows:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mole of diboron trixoide reacts with 3 moles of water to produce 2 moles of boric acid.
Hence, the chemical equations are written above.
Answer:
V ∝ abc
Explanation:
This task is a joint variation task involving only direct proportionality:
Direct variation is one in which two variables are in direct proportionality to each other. This means that as one increases, the other variable also increases and vice - versa.
Joint variation is one in which one variable is dependent on two or more variables and varies directly as each of them.
In this exercise:
If a ∝ b and a ∝ c, then a ∝ bc
Taking the above three proportionalities,
V ∝ a ∝ b ∝ c
V ∝ a ∝ bc
V ∝ abc
Ionic bonding would be the answer because they transfer electrons. This gives them a charge. If it loses electrons, it becomes an cation, with a positive charge. While if they gain an electron, they get a negative charge, and become a anion. Transferring an electron is losing or gaining, therefore your answer would be that since electrons are permanently being transferred, the answer is IONIC BOND.
Covalent bonds is a wrong answer because they share electrons, which gives them no charge (neutral).
Also, metallic bonding is not the correct answer.
So our final answer: A- Ionic bond
