Group 3A or called the boron group comprising :1- Boron (B)2- Aluminum (Al)3- Gallium (Ga)4- Indium (In) 5- Thallium (Tl)6- Ununtrium (Uut)The elements in the boron group are
characterized by having three electrons in their outer energy levels (valence layers).
These elements have also been referred to as earth metals.

The metallic character increase down group 3A .Boron is metalloid (non-metal) and. Ununtrium has
not yet been confirmed to be a poor metal one or not .
Also they are metals they conduct electricity and heat very well , but boron need a high temperature to conductelectricity .
The elements of group 3A arerelatively reactive at normal temperature except boron is reactive at high temperature .
METALLIC CHARACTER
![Page 6: Group 3 a element of periodic table](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554e8e35b4c90526358b4c62/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The hardness decrease down the group and the softness increase down.
All Elements of group 3A is soft except Boron Boron is relatively hard .Ununtrium is the softest element in boron
group but it’s not natural element so the softest element is Thallium .
SOFTNESS
![Page 7: Group 3 a element of periodic table](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554e8e35b4c90526358b4c62/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
All the elements in group 3A have a stable isotopes .
Boron , Gallium and Thallium has a two stable isotopes .
Aluminium and Indium are a mono isotopes ( they have a one
stable isotope ) .
All compound of group 3A are toxic but some compounds are
toxic for plants , some only toxic for animals and some toxic
for both .
ISOTOPES AND TOXICITY
![Page 8: Group 3 a element of periodic table](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554e8e35b4c90526358b4c62/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The tri-oxidation state less stable down group 3A ,but the mono-oxidation state more stable down the group .
fagan's rule: the small size atoms form covalent bonds and the large size ones form ionic bonds .
Boron has only a tri oxidation state.Aluminium always trivalent but rarely univalent and
unstable .Gallium the compounds of a monoxidation (+I) is less
stable than the compounds of (+III) ,there’re not pure Ga (+I) and (+III) .
Indium the compounds of a monoxidation (+I) is less stable than the compounds of (+III) .
Thallium The compound (+I) more stable than (+III) compounds .
OXIDATION STATE

Boron is a relatively rare element in the Earth's crust, representing only 0.001% .
Aluminium occurs widely on earth, and indeed is the third most abundant element in the Earth's crust (8.3%).
Gallium is found in the earth with an abundance of 13 ppm.
Indium is the 61 st most abundant element in the earth's crust,
thallium is found in moderate amounts throughout the planet.
Ununtrium is never found in nature and therefore is termed a synthetic element.

Boron is strong oxophiles and It’s oxides is very important like 1- Boron sesquioxides ,B2O3 (sesquioxides mean 1 and 0.5).
Preparation :- - By heating the element of boron in oxygen 4B+3O2 2B2O3

Properties :- the unhydride form of ortho boric acid has acidity and metallic oxides properties : B2O3+3MgOMg3(BO3)2
Acid + strong base saltAnd when it reacts with strongly acidic oxide it behaves as a basic oxide P2O3+B2O3 2BPO4

2- Boric acid: It’s a very weak acid in aqueous solution and the complex forms with water is the actual source of protons so it acts as a weak monobasic acid . The solid of orthoboric acid contains triangular HOH 3 units
which are bonded together through hydrogen bond into 2D sheet with hexagonal symmetry .
Orthoboric acid has in liquid state a plane triangular but when soluble in water it donates protons and accept (OH -) B(OH)3 +2H2O B(OH)4 + H3O+

The hydride of indium and thallium are very unstable .
The hydride of aluminium and gallium is much more limited than that of boron .
Like AlH3 exists as a solid but not available , it available as (AlH3)n .Gallium : (Ga2H6) prepared in 1994 .
Lithium tetrahydroaluminate LiAlH4 and Lithium tetrahydrogallate LiGaH4 are much more hydridic
than [BH4]- due to the high electronegativity of boron compared with Al and Ga , and LiAlH4 is widely used as a reducing agent .
OTHER ELEMENTS OF GROUP 3A WITH HYDROGEN (HYDRIDES )

Mono Halides boron forms a number of stable (BX) ex other elements of group 3A forms monohalides MX containing metals with +1 oxidation state . Where oxidation state (+1) increase in stability down the group .Al(X) not stable in solid state and ( GaX , Inx , TiX are known in solid state . Where TlX is the most stable) .
HALIDES
![Page 22: Group 3 a element of periodic table](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554e8e35b4c90526358b4c62/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
dihalides Boron Forms di-halides of formula B2X4 , these compounds decompose slowly at r.t .
other elements made a known di halides but not used.
HALIDES
![Page 23: Group 3 a element of periodic table](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554e8e35b4c90526358b4c62/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Trihalides : Boron form trihalides at a general formula BX3 where (X = Cl,Br,F) I is formed at up normal condition . they are monomeric in the gas ,liquid and solid state BF 3 and BCl3 are gases and BBr3 is liquid and BI3 is solid. BF3 can readily accept a lone pair of electron from a donor atom like N,O,P,S and Lewis acid . structure of BF3
HALIDES
![Page 24: Group 3 a element of periodic table](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554e8e35b4c90526358b4c62/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Trihalides : and when BF3 accept a lone pair of electron from a NH3 or trimethylamine . A tetrahedral molecule is formed .
Of other elements : they forms covalent trihalides with all halides except F because the higher electronegativity it form ionic trihalides and when it dissolve in water the covalent dimmer is broken into and 3X - because of the higher heat of hydration .
HALIDES
![Page 25: Group 3 a element of periodic table](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554e8e35b4c90526358b4c62/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Boron : - Pure crystalline B is very unreactive except at high temperature by mixing conc.H2SO4 and conc.HNO3 .
- Impure amorphous ,burns in air to form oxide and nitride . Aluminium : Al is stable at air and water due to heavy
thin layer of oxide on surface of metal which protects the metal further attack .
Gallium and Indium : Ga and In are stable in air and not attacked by water.
Thallium : Tl is little more active and form superoxide in air

Electronics Very small amounts used in aluminium alloy sacrifi cial anodes
(for salt water applications) to prevent passivation of the aluminium.
To bond gold electrical test leads to superconductors, indium is used as a conducting adhesive and applied under a microscope with precision tweezers.
In the form of a wire it is used as a vacuum seal and a thermal conductor in cryogenics and ultra-high vacuum applications. For example, in manufacturing gaskets which deform to fi ll gaps.
Used as a calibration material for Diff erential scanning calorimetry.
It is an ingredient in the gallium-indium-tin alloy Galinstan, which is liquid at room temperature while not being toxic like mercury.

High-temperature superconductivity Medical Electronics Optics: Thallium(I) bromide and thallium(I) iodide crystals
have been used as infrared optical materials, because they are harder than other common infrared optics, and because they have transmission at signifi cantly longer wavelengths. The trade name KRS-5 refers to this material. Thallium(I) oxide has been used to manufacture glasses that have a high index of refraction. Combined with sulfur or selenium and arsenic, thallium has been used in the production of high-density glasses that have low melting points in the range of 125 and 150 °C. These glasses have room temperature properties that are similar to ordinary glasses and are durable, insoluble in water and have unique refractive indices. [
