Describe differences and similarities in bonding, structure and reactivity (using HCl as an example) between borazene, (HBNH)3, and benzene, C6H6. Briefly explain (in one or two sentences) the following observations: a. Unlike NH3, BiH3 is very unstable compound. b. Solid SO3 forms a trimer (SO3)3 but solid SeO3 forms a tetramer (SeO3)4. c. NH3 can be obtained from N2 and H2, but PH3 has to be prepared from PC13 and LiAlH4.
