  • B
    The hydroxide of boron is basic, while that of aluminium is amphoteric
  • The hydroxide of boron is acidic, while that of aluminium is amphoteric
  • D
    The hydroxide of boron and aluminium are amphoteric

Answer

Correct option: C.
The hydroxide of boron is acidic, while that of aluminium is amphoteric
c
(c) $B{(OH)_3} \Rightarrow {H_3}B{O_3}$ Boric acid

$Al{(OH)_3} \Rightarrow {\rm{Amphoteric}}$
