the electronegativity of boron is 2.04
Yes. Fluorine has an electronegativity of 4 and Boron has an electronegativity of 2. If the difference in the electronegativity of two elements is greater than 1.8, then it is ionic.
With a electronegativity of 2,04 on the Pauli scale boron is a reactive chemical element.
firstly boron due to its small size has highest electronegativity in the group.Next Al , has larger size and atomic radii so electronegativity decreases. But in Ga due to the presence of 10 d-electrons , the shielding effect gets reduced. As a result the attraction due to the nuclear charge increases. The same happens with In and Tl. By Ashank
Covalent, the difference in electronegativity of 2.0 and fluoride of 4.0 is borderline for covalent and ionic, the bond will be polar.
Yes! It is because the dipole moment is pointing away from the Boron, therefore taking all the electronegativity and pulling it in different directions, making it a trigonal planar molecule.

Covalent Bonding ...these two elements are non metals with a relativelly small difference in electronegativity. The compound is boron nitride, BN which has a structure like graphite, however it is colorless and does not conduct electricity.
Chlorine is a group 17 element and has the highest electronegativity among the elements given.
Because the difference in their electronegativity is not sufficiently large.See the Related Questions to the left for the difference between a covalent and an ionic bond.
Boron triuoxide, B2O3. (If teacher says its ionic then that's OK) B2O3 is more covalent than ionic the electronegativity difference is only 1.4 and boron is not a metal. It is best described as a giant covalent molecule.
BF3, Boron trifluoride, has ionic bonds, because the difference in electronegativity between B and F atoms is 2.1 and every 'bond' with E.N.D. more than 1.8 is ionic.

boron was named boron because of the properties it has
