A. size order Tℓ>In>Al>Ga>B B. Electronegativity order B>Al<Ga<In<Tℓ D. B,Al are more stable in +3 oxidation state
So, only C, E statements are correct.
JEE Main 2024 — Chemistry Inorganic Chemistry
The correct statements from the following are : (A) The decreasing order of atomic radii of group 13 elements is Tl> In >Ga>Al>B. (B) Down the group 13 electronegativity decreases from top to bottom. (C) Al dissolves in dil. HCl and liberates H2 but conc. HNO3 renders Al passive by forming a protective oxide layer on the surface. (D) All elements of group 13 exhibits highly stable +1 oxidation state. (E) Hybridisation of Al in [Al(H2O)6]3+ ion is sp3 d2. Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

It is noticed that $\mathrm{Pb}^{2+}$ is more stable than $\mathrm{Pb}^{4+}$ but $\mathrm{Sn}^{2+}$ is less stable than $\mathrm{Sn}^{4+}$. Observe the following reactions. $\mathrm{PbO}_{2}+\mathrm{Pb} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{PbO} ; \Delta_{\mathrm{r}} \mathrm{G}^{\circ}(1)$ $\mathrm{SnO}_{2}+\mathrm{Sn} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{SnO} ; \Delta_{\mathrm{r}} \mathrm{G}^{\circ}(2)$ Identify the correct set from the following
In a period, the first ionisation enthalpy of the element at extreme left and the negative electron gain enthalpy of the extreme right element, except noble gases, are respectively.
First and second ionization enthalpies of lithium are $520$ kJ mol$^{-1}$ and $7297$ kJ mol$^{-1}$ respectively. Energy required to convert $3.5$ mg lithium (g) into $\text{Li}^{2+}$(g) $[\text{Li(g)} \rightarrow \text{Li}^{2+}\text{(g)}]$ is _______ kJ mol$^{-1}$. (nearest integer) [Molar mass of Li $= 7$ g mol$^{-1}$]
Which of the following elements has the highest electronegativity?
On heating a mixture of common salt and $\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}$ in equal amount along with concentrated $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}$ in a test tube, a gas is evolved. Formula of the gas evolved and oxidation state of the central metal atom in the gas respectively are:
