Answer:

All group 13 elements have ns2np1 valence electron configurations, and all tend to lose their three valence electrons to form compounds in the +3 oxidation state. ... Because the group 13 elements generally contain only six valence electrons in their neutral compounds, these compounds are all moderately strong Lewis acids
