Both are members of the 13th group of the Periodic Table (boron group).
The density of gallium is between 2.08 g/cm³ and 2.70 g/cm³ since gallium is located between boron and aluminum in the periodic table.
The maximum capacity of electron accommodation in aluminium is 18 electrons( M shell) on contraty it has only 3 valence electrons whereas boron has maximum capacity of 8 electrons(L shell) and it has 3 valence electrons so electron population of Aluminium is less than that of boron.
Aluminum is less abundant than boron because boron has a higher atomic number and thus is more stable. Aluminium is more reactive and tends to form compounds with other elements rather than existing in its pure form. Boron also has more natural sources and is used in a variety of applications, contributing to its higher population.
The element Aluminium (Al) belongs to the Group 3 - Boron Family. This family includes: Boron (B) Aluminium (Al) Gallium (Ga) Indium (In) Thulium (Tl) (Ununtrium [Uut])* Every element in this group has three electrons in the outer shell of their atoms. The group is sometimes called "Earth Metals" *Ununtrium has been observed but not officially confirmed by the IUPAC.
The maximum capacity of electron accommodation of Boron in its outer most shell is eight electrons and that of aluminium is eighteen electrons. It means that the electron population of aluminium is less than Boron.Due to less electron population the no. Of neighboring atoms in the lattice increase, that's why metallic character of aluminium is less than Boron.. (Correct me if I am Wrong)
what are similarities between beryllium and aluminium
Boron is from the 3A family, the same as Aluminium.
boron
Elements : Boron, Aluminium, Gallium, Indium, Thallium They are of Group 13.
Boron is a metalloid, while aluminium is a metal. The size of the aluminium atom is much greater than boron, so electropositivity increases from boron to aluminium. But then electropositivity decreases from aluminium to thallium due to the poor shielding effect of the d10 orbital.
The density of gallium is between 2.08 g/cm³ and 2.70 g/cm³ since gallium is located between boron and aluminum in the periodic table.
Sodium is a highly reactive alkali metal whereas aluminium is a less reactive metal in the boron group.
Aluminium is located in the Group IIIA - the Boron family on the periodic table.
