The stability of +1 oxidation state among Al, Ga, In and Tl increases in the sequence

Easy
Solution

In group 13 elements, stability of +3 oxidation state decreases down the group while that of +1 oxidation state increases due to inert pair effect. Hence, stability of +1 oxidation state increases in the sequence  : Al < Ga < ln < Tl .
