P Block Elements

\(\mathrm{Cl}\) forms bond with both \(\mathrm{Al}\) and \(\mathrm{Ga}\) in \(\mathrm{GaAlCl}_{4}\)

Oxidation state of \(\mathrm{Ga}\) in the salt \(\mathrm{GaAlCl}_{4}\) is +3 .

\(\mathrm{Ga}\) is coordinated with \(\mathrm{Cl}\) in \(\mathrm{GaAlCl}_{4}\)

\(\mathrm{Ga}\) is more electronegative than \(\mathrm{Al}\) and is present as a cationic part of the salt \(\mathrm{GaAlCl}_{4}\)
