Answer ⤵️
A diagonal relationship is said to exist between certain pairs of diagonally adjacent elements in the second and third periods of the periodic table. These pairs exhibit similar properties; for example, boron and silicon are both semiconductors, forming halides that are hydrolysed in water and have acidic oxides.
What is the Diagonal Effect? - Elements have the tendency to not have characteristics of their own family, but characteristics close to the element that is right one and down one, hence the word diagonal.
