Question

What is the valency of an element boron with explanation?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The valency of Boron is B^3-

Explanation:

Boron has electronic configuration 2,3 so it will lose 3 electrons rather than gaining 5 electrons. Thus, the valency of nitrogen and boron is 3.

Answer 2

Answer:

The valency of boron is 3.

Explanation:

The valency of boron is 3 because boron's electronic configuration is 2,3 which means in its outermost shell it has 3 electrons, therefore it's valency is three.
