$(A)$ In $B_2H_6$,each $B$ atom uses $sp^3$ hybrids for bonding. Out of the four $sp^3$ hybrids on each $B$ atom,one is without an electron shown in broken lines. The terminal $B-H$ bonds are normal $2$-centre-$2$-electron bonds but the two bridge bonds are $3$-centre-$2$-electron bonds. The $3$-centre-$2$-electron bridge bonds are also referred to as banana bonds.
$(B)$ Gallium with an unusually low melting point $(303 \ K)$,could exist in a liquid state during summer. Its high boiling point $(2676 \ K)$ makes it a useful material for measuring high temperatures.
$(C)$ Borax is used as a flux for soldering metals,and for heat,scratch,and stain-resistant glazed coating to earthenwares.
$(D)$ Zeolites are aluminosilicates and are widely used as catalysts in petrochemical industries for cracking of hydrocarbons and isomerization,e.g.,$ZSM-5$ (a type of zeolite) is used to convert alcohols directly into gasoline.
$(E)$ Quartz,cristobalite,and tridymite are some of the crystalline forms of silica.
