Boron Family Preparations Properties Uses

Al₂O₃ can be converted to anhydrous AlCl₃ by heating:

1. $A{l}_2{O}_3$ $with$ $HCl$ $gas$

2. $A{l}_2{O}_3$ $$with NaCl in solid-state

3. a mixture of $A{l}_2{O}_3$ $$ and carbon in dry $C{l}_2$ gas

4. $A{l}_2{O}_3$ $$ with $C{l}_2$ gas

The stability of the +1 oxidation state increases in the sequence:

1. Al

2. Tl

3. In

4. Ga

AlF₃ is soluble in HF only in the presence of KF due to the formation of:

The correct order of atomic radii of the group 13 elements is-

1. B < Al < In < Ga < Tl
2. B < Al < Ga < In < Tl
3. B < Ga < Al < Tl < In
4. B < Ga < Al < In < Tl
