Which of the following statements are not correct?
i. Atomic radius of \(\mathrm{Ga}\) is less than that of \(\mathrm{Al}\)
ii. The order of ionization enthalpy of group 13 elements is \(\mathrm{B}>\mathrm{Al}>\mathrm{Ga}>\mathrm{In}>\mathrm{Tl}\)
iii. Boron trioxide is amphoteric in nature

  1. A ii, iii only
  2. B i, iii only
  3. C i, ii only
  4. D i, ii, iii
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) ii, iii only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The order of atomic radii of group 13 elements varies as:- \(\mathrm{B} \mathrm{Tl}>\mathrm{Ga}>\mathrm{Al}>\) In This is due to poor shielding by d-subshells and \(\mathrm{f}\)-subshells that result in ionization enthalpy being higher for \(\mathrm{Tl}\) and \(\mathrm{Ga}\).…
