The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's break down each part of the question regarding the boron family (B, Al, Ga, In, Tl): ### Step 1: Determine x **x** is defined as the number of elements in the boron family that are solid at 40°C. - The elements in the boron family are: - Boron (B) - Aluminum (Al) - Gallium (Ga) - Indium (In) - Thallium (Tl) - At 40°C: - Boron is a solid. - Aluminum is a solid. - Gallium is a solid at room temperature but melts at around 30°C, so it is not solid at 40°C. - Indium is a solid. - Thallium is a solid. Thus, the solid elements at 40°C are B, Al, In, and Tl. Therefore, **x = 4**. ### Step 2: Determine y **y** is defined as the period number of the element that has greater ionization energy than the element just above and below it in the periodic table. - In the boron family: - Boron (B) is in period 2. - Aluminum (Al) is in period 3. - Gallium (Ga) is in period 4. - Indium (In) is in period 5. - Thallium (Tl) is in period 6. - We need to check the ionization energies: - Boron has a higher ionization energy than Aluminum (B > Al). - Aluminum has a lower ionization energy than Gallium (Al < Ga). - Gallium has a higher ionization energy than Indium (Ga > In). - Indium has a lower ionization energy than Thallium (In < Tl). The element with greater ionization energy than both its neighbors is Gallium (Ga) in period 4. Thus, **y = 4**. ### Step 3: Determine z **z** is defined as the period number of the most abundant element in group 13. - The most abundant element in group 13 is Aluminum (Al), which is in period 3. Therefore, **z = 3**. ### Step 4: Calculate the final result Now, we can report the answer in the form of \( x + 2y + 3z \). - Substitute the values: - \( x = 4 \) - \( y = 4 \) - \( z = 3 \) Now, calculate: \[ x + 2y + 3z = 4 + 2(4) + 3(3) \] \[ = 4 + 8 + 9 \] \[ = 21 \] ### Final Answer The final answer is **21**. ---
