Question:medium

Boron trifluoride on reaction with lithium aluminium hydride in ether gives LiF, AlF\(_3\) and X. X on reaction with NH\(_3\) gives Y. Y on further heating gives a compound Z. The number of \(\sigma\)-bonds and \(\pi\)-bonds in Z are x and y respectively. (x+y) is equal to

Show Hint

Borazine (\(B_3N_3H_6\)), known as "inorganic benzene," has a structure very similar to benzene. It has 12 sigma bonds (6 in the ring, 6 to hydrogens) and 3 pi bonds (from dative bonding from N to B). The total bond count is 15.
