The compound diborane (b2h6) was at one time considered for use as a rocket fuel. its combustion reaction is b2h6(g) + 3 o2(â) â 2 hbo2(g) + 2 h2o(â) the fact that hbo2, a reactive compound, was produced rather than the relatively inert b2o3 was a factor in the discontinuation of the investigation of the diborane as a fuel. what mass of liquid oxygen (lox) would be needed to burn 106.3 g of b2h6?

the leaf is an organ of a typical plant, and the main functions are to complete photosynthesis and allow the plant to exchange gas, just like how we have the respiratory system. leaves have the stomata, which collects maintains co2 and o2 levels. this is necessary for cell metabolism. the leaf also collects sunlight using chloroplasts. succinctly, leaves own a pivotal role in sustaining plant life.
