Question
Chapter 2, Problem 88P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
All the elements in Group 3A should be identified. The relation between the designation of group and electronic configuration of all these elements should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
The electronic configuration of an atom represents the arrangement of electrons in the subshells and orbital shells. Generally. Electronic configuration is used to define the atom’s orbitals in its ground state.
Group 3A elements in the periodic table incorporates B (metalloid boron) and gallium (Ga), aluminum (Al), thallium (Tl) and indium (In). In group 3A boron basically forms covalent bond and the other elements of group 3A form ionic bond.
