For the properties mentioned, the correct trend for the different species is in

A

strength as Lewis acids -
`BCl_(3) gt AlCl_(3) gt GaCl_(3)`

B

inert pair effect - `Al gt Ga gt In`

C

oxidising property `-Al^(3+) gt Ga gt In`

D

first ionization enthalpy `-B gt Al gt Tl`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Only option (a) , i.e., strength of Lewis acids decreases in the order : `BCl_(3) gt AlCl_(3) gt GaCl_(3)` is correct while all other options are incorrect as explained below :
Al does not show inert pair effect, `Tl^(3+)` has the highest oxidising power while ionization enthalpy of Tl is higher than that of Al.
