Generally third A group elements in the Periodic Table exhibit +3 oxidation state but Boron

exhibit negative oxidation state also . The stable oxidation state of Tl is +1. It exhibit +3 also

but +1 is more stable than +3.

Boron have negative oxidation state in the III-A group elements because "generally metals have positive oxidation state . except Boron all elements of the III-A group elements are metals. Boron is a non-metal so it have positive and negative oxidation states "

Coulmns on a periodic table are called?

The vertical columns of the periodic table are called groups. The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called periods. The number of electron shells an atom has corresponds to the number period of the periodic table it is located in. The oxidation number or number of valence electrons an atom is depicted by the group it is in. For example: Calcium (Ca) has an oxidation number of +2 and has 2 valence electrons( outermost electrons) which means it belongs to group 2 of the periodic table called the "alkali earth metals".

What is the oxidation number of the elements in group 1 of the periodic table?

Group 1 elements are the most electropositive in nature and have only 1 valence electron. So, they always show the oxidation state of +1.


What are the elements with an oxidation number of 1?

All alkali metals easily obtain +1 oxidation state. They are in group 1 of periodic table. They donate their outermost electron to form a positive ion which has +1 oxidation status.
