The correct order of atomic radii in group $13$ elements is
$\mathrm{B} < \mathrm{Al} < \mathrm{In} < \mathrm{Ga} < \mathrm{Tl}$
$\mathrm{B} < \mathrm{Al} < \mathrm{Ga} < \mathrm{In} < \mathrm{T}$
$\mathrm{B} < \mathrm{Ga} < \mathrm{Al} < \mathrm{T}) < \mathrm{In}$
$\mathrm{B} < \mathrm{Ga} < \mathrm{Al} < \mathrm{In} < \mathrm{Tl}$
Boron is unable to form $BF_{6}^{3-}$ on. Explain.
If $B-Cl$ bond has a dipole moment, explain why $BCl_3$ molecule has zero dipole moment.
Discuss the pattern of variation in the oxidation states of
$(i)$ $B$ to $Tl$ and $(ii)$ $C$ to $Pb$.
Borax is actually made of two tetrahedra and two triangular units joined together and should be written as : $Na_2[B_4O_5(OH)_4]·8H_2O$
Consider the following statements about borax :
$a.$ Each boron atom has four $B-O$ bonds
$b.$ Each boron atom has three $B-O$ bonds
$c.$ Two boron atoms have four $B-O$ bonds while other two have three $B-O$ bonds
$d.$ Each boron atom has one $-OH$ groups
Select correct statement(s) :
Assertion : Coloured cations can be identified by borax bead test.
Reason : Transparent bead $(NaBO_2 + B_2O_3)$ forms coloured bead with coloured cation.
