BCl₃ exists as monomer whereas AlCl₃ is dimerised through halogen bridging. Give reason. Explain the structure of the dimer of AlCl₃ also.

Boron fluoride exists as BF₃ but boron hydride doesn’t exist as BH₃. Give reason. In which form does it exist? Explain its structure.

A nonmetallic element of group 13, used in making bullet proof vests is extremely hard solid of black colour. It can exist in many allotropic forms and has unusually high melting point. Its trifluoride acts as Lewis acid towards ammonia. The element exihibits maximum covalency of four. Identify the element and write the reaction of its trifluoride with ammonia. Explain why does the trifluoride act as a Lewis acid.
