316473 Boron does not form B3 +  ions whereas Al forms Al3+ ions. This is because :

1 The size of B atom is smaller than that of Al
2 The sum of (IE1 + IE2 + IE3) of B is much higher than that of Al
3 The sum of (IE1 + IE2 + IE3) of Al is much higher than that of B
4 Both (1) and (2)

316474 The first ionization enthalpy of aluminium is smaller than that of magnesium because

1 Atomic size of Al>Mg
2 "Al" has one electron in the less penetrating p-orbital.
3 Mg has one electron in the p-orbital
4 Atomic number of Al>Mg

316475 Read the Statement A and Statement B carefully and mark the correct option.
Statement A :
The decrease in first ionisation enthalpy from B to Al is much larger than that from Al to Ga .
Statement B :
The d – orbitals in Ga are completely filled.

1 Statement A is incorrect but statement B is correct.
2 Both the statements A and B are correct.
3 Statement A is correct but statement B is incorrect.
4 Both the statements A and B are incorrect.

316472 Which of the following properties describes the diagonal relationship between boron and silicon?

1 BCl3 is not hydrolyzed while SiCl4 can be hydrolyzed.
2 Both form oxides: B2O3 is amphoteric; SiO2 is acidic.
3 Both B and Si dissolve in cold and dilute nitric acid
4 Borides and silicides are hydrolyzed by water.
