A

calcium

B

boron

C

aluminium

D

magnesium

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

Just as Li shows resemblance with its diagonally opposite element Al. This is because the two elements have the same electronegativity (be=1.5,Al=1.5) and possess similar polarizing power (i.e., charge/radius).
