B3+ is isoelectronic with helium.
Isoelectronicity is the phenomenon whereby two or more molecular entities have the same number of electrons or similar electronic configuration regardless of the nature of the elements that are involved.
In the question given above, helium and B3+ have the same number of electrons. Helium has two electrons. Boron has five electrons but it has given away three of the electrons [that is why it has a charge of +3] and it now has only two left.
Electron configuration is the electron distribution in the molecular and atomic orbital. An element with configuration ns²np¹ will be in the 3A group. Thus, option B is correct.
<h3>What is electronic configuration?</h3>
The electronic configuration has been the arrangement and distribution of the sub-atomic particle, an electron in the atomic shells.
The electronic configuration given is, ns²np¹. Here, there are three valence electrons in the outermost orbit. As it has been known that the number of the valence electron gives the number of the group.
Therefore, option B. 3A group or 13 group is the correct option.
