Answer:
a. BH₃
Explanation:
According to the octet rules, atoms reach stability when are surrounded by eight electrons in their valence shell when they combine to form a chemical compound.
From the options, the only compound in which the central atom does not meet the octet rules is BH₃. The central atom is boron (B), which has 3 electrons in its valence shell. When B is combined with hydrogen (H), 3 electrons from the 3 atoms of H are added. The total amount of electrons is 6, fewer than 8 electrons needed to meet the rule.

Solid - made up of tightly packed particles, which gives it a solid shape.
Gas - made up of very loose particles, giving it more freedom to roam around as a gas
Liquid - fills into whatever it gets put in, basically takes the shape of the object its in
The balanced equation for the given reaction:
C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + 6O₂→ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
So in the balanced equation the coefficients before glucose, oxygen, water and carbon dioxide are 1, 6, 6 and 6 respectively.
Therefore, the sum of the coefficients in the balanced equation
= 1 + 6 + 6 + 6
= 19
The correct answer is 19.
Yes, because nothing has changed. The same ingredients are used and if one reaction happened in a a bag then why wouldn’t it happen in a container?
