Radii (pm) 88 143 135 167 17 0 B < Ga < Al < In < Tl The sharp increase of atomic radius of ‘Al’ is due to greater screening effect of electrons of penultimate shell. What is screening effect? Decrease in the force attraction of nucleus over the valence shell electrons due to inner core electrons shielding is called screening effect. i.e., greater the screening effect, easier the removal of electron. Physical Properties +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 3) Ionic Radius (M+3) : B < Al < Ga < In < Tl Ionic radius increases from top to bottom in IIIA group. Physical Properties 4) Ionisation Enthalpy : Ionization enthalpy values (decrease) with (increase) in atomic radii. Since, the outer electrons become more loosely held down the group. & so the order of ionization enthalpy: IE1 < IE2 < IE3 …. e– e– + + + IE1 IE2 Atom Monovalent Cation Divalent Cation Physical Properties 4) Ionisation Enthalpy : Ionisation enthalpy from ‘B’ to ‘Al’ but from Al Tl increases marginally. The observed discontinuity in the ionisation enthalpy between ‘Al’ and ‘Ga’ and between ‘In’ and ‘Tl’ are due to lower screening effect of d and f orbitals Elements B Al Ga In Tl I.E. values 801 577 579 558 589 kJ/mol B > Tl > Ga > Al > In ‘B’ has highest I.E. in IIIA group.

The order of melting point of IIIA group elements is as follows… Due to very strong crystal lattice, boron B > Al > Tl > In > Ga has high melting point. ‘Ga’ has low melting point since it exists as simple Ga2 molecule.

Oxidation State : What is inert pair effect? The +1 oxidation state becomes more stable due to inert pair effect. The non-participation of s electron pair in bonding or the reluctance of s electron pair in bonding is called inert pair effect Chemical Properties : 1. Oxidation State : The common oxidation number of group 13 elements is +3. Due to small size of boron, the sum of its first three ionization enthalpies is very high. This prevents it to form +3 oxidation state. Boron exhibits -3 oxidation state with highly electropositive metals Ex: Mg3B2 Chemical Properties : 1. Oxidation State : Along with +3 other elements Ga, In and Tl shows +1 oxidation state The stability of +1 increases from Ga to Tl due to inert pair effect The inert pair effect increases from Ga to Tl EX: TlCl more stable than TlCl3 Chemical Properties : Valency means combining Valency : capacity of an element In general, these are Trivalent compounds as they possess three electrons in their valence shell. In Trivalent state the number of electrons around the central atom will be only 6 in the bonded molecule so, it act as a Lewis acid. Have tendency to accept a pair of electrons to achieve stable electronic configuration. Example : BF3 Chemical Properties : The tendency to behave as a Lewis acid decreases with increase in the atomic size down the group. For example : BCl3 easily accepts a lone pair of electron from ammonia to form H3NBCl3 where as AlCl3 achieves stability by forming a dimer. Cl. .N. .H + .B . H H Cl. Cl (Ammonia) (Boron trichloride) H . Cl . N . B . H . Cl . H Cl Ammonium boron trichloride Nature of compounds of IIIA group elements: IIIA group elements mostly form covalent compounds because of their high ionization energy. Compounds of boron are always covalent but some compounds of other elements like AlCl3, GaCl3 are covalent only in an anhydrous state. Question: Why cannot boron form B+3 ion? Answer: The element with highest sum of ionisation energies I.E1, I.E2 and I.E3 is boron. Hence, it cannot form B+3 ion. Question: Why is the maximum covalency of boran only four whereas that of aluminium is six? Answer: ‘Al’ has vacant ‘d’-orbitals hence it can expand its octet. In boron, there are no d-orbitals at all. Hence, it cannot expand its octet. Question: Write the correct order of reducing nature of group 13 elements in +3 oxidation state. Answer: Reducing nature Al > B > Ga > In > Tl 1) More stable and more common Oxidation state of ‘Tl ‘ is… a) +1 b) +2 c) +3 d) +5 2) AlCl3 exists as… a) Monomer b) Dimer c) trimer d) tetramer 1) Reactivity towards air Boron is unreactive in crystalline form, But in Amorphous form on heating in air forms B2O3 Aluminum will form a very thin oxide layer on the surface of it by heating in the atmosphere of O2 .

    12/26/2018 Boric acid - Wikipedia Boric acid Boric acid, also called hydrogen borate, boracic acid, orthoboric acid and acidum boricum, is a weak, monobasic Lewis acid of boron, which is often used as an antiseptic, insecticide, flame retardant, neutron absorber, or precursor to other chemical Boric acid compounds. It has the chemical formula H3BO3 (sometimes written B(OH)3), and exists in the form of colorless crystals or a white powder that dissolves in water. When occurring as a mineral, it is called sassolite.

They withstand thermal shock better than other glasses (e.g. soda glass (SiO2 73%+Na2O 14% ~ 8.9 x 10-6cm/cm/ ºC). •Boron forms trivalent electron deficient compounds which are excellent Lewis acids •Boron halides, unlike other halides of the same group do not dimerize due to smaller size and higher electro-negativity of boron. •Boron compounds do not show observable toxicity and are therefore sought after intermediates in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry. 2- •Sodium perborate, Na2H4B2O8 otherwise [B2O4(OH)4] at around 60 ºC releases oxygen. Hydrolysis of this salt gives H2O2. This property makes it an oxidizer and chlorine free bleach which is also less aggressive. Also a mild oxidant. •Aryl boronic acids are excellent reagents for palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (Suzuki Coupling). •Carboranes have higher air stability to form useful and stable organo derivatives with high boron content and steric bulkiness to make them weak anionic counterions. •Boron carbide and boron nitride have hardness close to diamond and high melting points making them useful materials in nuclear (control rods) and defence (e.g. bullet proof vests) industry •Boron is a minor nutrient for plants Boric acid in antiseptic and skin irritation removal creames TANKAN AMLA (Boric Acid): Anti diaphoretic (anti sweating) agent reduces oiliness of the skin.
