As the oxidation state of B is +3, it can form a stable structure of BCl3. BUt Tl shows the oxidation state of +1 and +3 out of which +1 is predominant, so it form unstable state.

BCl_3 is more stable than TiCl_3 as +3 oxidation state becomes unstable down the group.

Explanation:

  • The given compounds are chlorides formed by the elements such as Boron and Titanium belonging to group 13.
  • It is a matter of fact that, as the electronic congratulation of this group elements is ns^2np^1, they must have +3 oxidation state.
  • But it may be observed that apart form +3 oxidation state, elements such as Gallium, Indium and Titanium exhibit +1 oxidation state due to inert pair effect.
  • Accordingly, the +3 oxidation states decrease down the group whereas +1 oxidation state increases down the group.
  • Thus it is inferred that as +3 oxidation state decreases down the group the stability also decreases. Hence BCl_3 is more stable than TiCl_3.
