Choose the correct stability order of group 13 elements in their +1 oxidation state
- Al < Ga < In < Tl
- Tl < In < Ga < Al
- Al < Ga < Tl < In
- Al < Tl < Ga < In
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Due to inert pair effect, stability of +3 oxidation state decreases and that of +1 oxidation state increases for (down the group) group 13 elements.
So, the correct order of stability of group 13 elements in their +1 oxidation state is Al < Ga < In < Tl

Concepts Used:
Oxidation and Reduction
What is Oxidation?
Oxidation is a chemical process which can be explained by following four point of views
In terms of oxygen transfer
In terms of electron transfer
In terms of hydrogen transfer
In terms of oxidation number
Oxidation in Terms of Oxygen Transfer – Oxidation is gain of oxygen.
What is Reduction?
Reduction is a chemical process which can be explained by following four point of views
In terms of oxygen transfer
In terms of electron transfer
In terms of hydrogen transfer
In terms of oxidation number
Reduction in Terms of Oxygen Transfer – Reduction is loss of oxygen.
What is Redox Reaction?
A chemical reaction which involves transfer of electrons or change in oxidation number of atoms is called redox reaction.
