BCl3 does not exist as dimer but BH3 exist as dimer B2H6 because:

1.chlorine is more electronegative than hydrogen

2.there is - back bonding in BCl3 but BH3 does not contain such multiple bonding

3.large sized chlorine atoms do not fit in between the small boron atoms whereas small sized hydrogen atoms get fitted between boron atoms

4.none of the above

Carbon dioxide is a gas but silica is a solid because:

1. Carbon dioxide is composed of discrete covalent CO2 molecules whereas silica has a continuous tetrahedral structure.

2. CO2 molecules are lighter than SiO2 molecules.

3. CO2 is more acidic than SiO2.

4. The melting point of silica is very high.
