13th group or boron group
Question

The correct order of Ionization potential among the Boron group elements is ?

Moderate
Solution

The ionization potential of elements of this family follows a irregular trend due to d orbital contraction and f orbital contraction. Ga and Tl & have poor shielding effect of 4f & 3d-orbitals. So they have high ionization potentials.
