Boron shows analogous behaviour with silicon. Every compound of Boron have +3 oxidation state, while as we go down the the oxidation state become +1 and +3. For example, gallium, indium, etc.

Similarly, every compound of silicon has the element in the ⁺4 oxidation state. In contrast, most compounds of lead have the element in the ⁺2 state because of inert pair effect.

<h3>What is Inert pair effect? </h3>

The inert-pair effect is defined as the tendency of two electrons in the outermost atomic s-orbital almost remain unshared in the compounds of the post-transition metals.

<h3>How we calculate Oxidation state? </h3>
  • Each atom in an element either be in its uncombined or free state has oxidation number of zero. Such as each atom in H₂, Cl₂ , P4, ,O₂ , Na, Al, O3, S8, and Mg, all have an oxidation number zero.
  • The oxidation state of ions that comprise of only one atom is the actual charge on the ion.
  • The oxidation state of hydrogen is +1, excluding when it is bonded to metals having two elements. For example, CaH2, its oxidation state is –1.
  • Fluorine and other halogens have an oxidation state equal to –1 when they appear as a form of halide ions in their compounds.

Since the inert pair effect increases as we go down the group and become more predominant, therefore, the stability of +2 oxidation state goes on increasing down the group. Therefore, gallium, indium are mostly found in +1 oxidation state.

Thus, we concluded that Boron shows analogous behaviour with silicon. Every compound of Boron have +3 oxidation state, while as we go down the the oxidation state become +1 and +3. For example, gallium, indium, etc.

b. Inorganic: NaAsO₂; HSiCl₃; (BiO)₂CO₃; H₂P₂O₇; H₂O; CO₂

Compounds containing <em>both C and H</em> are organic.

Compounds that are <em>not organic</em> are inorganic.

nirvana33 [79]

Explanation:

first you get moles of silver

n=m/M

hence you add no of moles to this equation

c=nv

Use the van der waals equation to calculate the pressure exerted by 1.335 mol of cl2 in a volume of 4.920 l at a temperature of
nika2105 [10]
<span>Van der waal or ideal eqn is given by PV = NRT; P = NRT/ V. Where N = 1.335 is the number of moles. T = 272K is temperature. V = 4.920L is the volume. And R = 0.08205L. Substiting the values into the eqn; we have, P = (1.331* 0.08205 * 272)/ 4.920 = 29.7047/ 4.920 = 6.03atm.</span>
