प्रश्न
Three pairs of compounds are given below. Identify that compound in each of the pairs which has group 13 element in more stable oxidation state. Give reason for your choice. State the nature of bonding also.
InCl3, InCl
उत्तर
Due to the inert pair effect, +1 oxidation state is more stable than the +3 oxidation state. So, InCl is more stable than InCl3.
