Answer:

In the bond (C) 8+N-B8-, the partial charges on the atoms are correct. This is because the nitrogen atom (N) has a partial positive charge (+), while the boron atom (B) has a partial negative charge (-). This arrangement indicates that there is a polar covalent bond between the nitrogen and boron atoms, with the nitrogen atom being slightly more electronegative than the boron atom.
