The relative strengths of trichlorides of boron group to accept a pair of electron is given by
Show Hint
BCl$_3$ is strongest Lewis acid due to highest electron deficiency despite back bonding.
Updated On: May 8, 2026
- GaCl$_3$ < AlCl$_3$ < BCl$_3$
- AlCl$_3$ < BCl$_3$ < GaCl$_3$
- AlCl$_3$ < GaCl$_3$ < BCl$_3$
- BCl$_3$ < AlCl$_3$ < GaCl$_3$
- GaCl$_3$ < BCl$_3$ < AlCl$_3$
