In some of the reactions thallium resembles aluminium, whereas in others it resembles group I metals. Support this statement by providing some evidence.
Options
- AThallium forms a trivalent cation (Tl³⁺) in reactions similar to aluminium, indicating a similarity in its ele
- BThallium readily forms a univalent cation (Tl⁺) in reactions similar to group I metals, demonstrating a simila
- CThallium exhibits both univalent and trivalent states, allowing it to exhibit properties of both aluminium and
- DThallium has a similar atomic radius to both aluminium and group I metals, contributing to its ability to exhi
Correct answer
C. Thallium exhibits both univalent and trivalent states, allowing it to exhibit properties of both aluminium and
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Thallium exhibits both univalent and trivalent states, allowing it to exhibit properties of both aluminium and group I metals in different reactions.
