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.

The classification of this sample of saliva : acid
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
The water equilibrium constant (Kw) is the product of concentration
the ions:
Kw = [H₃O⁺] [OH⁻]
Kw value at 25° C = 10⁻¹⁴
It is known [OH-] = 4.22 x 10⁻¹⁰ M
then the concentration of H₃O⁺:
![\tt 10^{-14}=4.22\times 10^{-10}\times [H_3O^+]\\\\(H_3O^+]=\dfrac{10^{-14}}{4.22\times 10^{-10}}=2.37\times 10^{-5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctt%2010%5E%7B-14%7D%3D4.22%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-10%7D%5Ctimes%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%28H_3O%5E%2B%5D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B10%5E%7B-14%7D%7D%7B4.22%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-10%7D%7D%3D2.37%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7D)
pH=-log[H₃O⁺]
Saliva⇒acid(pH<7)
Answer:
However, if something happens to make an atom lose or gain an electron then the atom will no longer be neutral.
Explanation:
A charged atom is called an ion. When an atom loses electron(s) it will lose some of its negative charge and so becomes positively charged. A positive ion is formed where an atom has more protons than electrons.
