Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Boron nitride is prepared synthetically in lab.

2. When ammonia is treated with boric acid or boron trioxide boron nitride is prepared.This are the other reaction to produce boron nitride.

3. B

5. B

Properties of Boron nitride :

1. Boron nitride is ionic in nature hence it reduces he co valency and electrical conductivity.

2. Hexa-boron nitride is thermally stable.1. Boron nitride is prepared synthetically in lab.
