Because Boron has 3 valence electrons it will need to lose valence electrons to have a (in this case) a empty valence shell. This means that it will lose 3 valence electrons to become stable

Can we move only one electron from its orbit to another orbit of lower energy without moving other electrons of the atom? well i
Mrac [35]
Yes, it can happen.

If all the lower energy orbits are already filled with electrons, then it cannot happen since the lower orbitals will already be full, hence another electron will have to move.

However, if the lower energy orbits are not full (for instance if one excited electron goes back to its normal state), then it can happen.

Read the passage below about acupuncture.
valkas [14]
The answer would be "This ancient form of pain relief and stimulation is said to benefit patients by blocking channels which practitioners claim allowed pain to travel within the body" because this statement best explains how acupuncture reduces pain.

To support such answer, it must be noted that acupuncture is a traditional Chinese mode of pain-relieving through the insertion of extremely fine needles into the skin at specific points in the body known as "acupoints". This may relieve pain by releasing the hormone known as endorphins (happy hormone), which is the body's natural pain-killers and by affecting the brain part that governs serotonin- brain chemical which involved mood.
