What properties does boron and boron family share?

Boron Family (13) - do not occur elementally in nature - are scarce in nature (except aluminum, which is the most abundant metallic element) - have three valence electrons - are metallic (except boron, which is a solid metalloid) - are soft and have low melting points (except boron, which is hard and has a high melting point) - are chemically reactive at moderate temperatures (except boron)


How can you predict a melting point?

Depending on the position of an element on the periodic table, one can know if it is a gas, liquid or metal. With that information, predicting the melting point is easy.
