The chemical reaction BBr 3 (g) + BCl 3 (g) BBr 2 Cl(g) + BCl 2

Question:

The chemical reaction BBr3(g) + BCl3(g) → BBr2Cl(g) + BCl2Br(g), has an enthalpy change very close to zero. Using Lewis structures of the molecules, all of which have a central boron atom, provide a molecular-level description of why ΔH° for this reaction might be very small.
