A group $\displaystyle 13$ element 'X' reacts with chlorine gas to produce a compound $\displaystyle \mathrm{XCl}_3$. $\displaystyle \mathrm{XCl}_3$ is electron deficient and easily reacts with $\displaystyle \mathrm{NH}_3$ to form $\displaystyle \mathrm{Cl}_3 \mathrm{X} \leftarrow \mathrm{NH}_3$ adduct; however, $\displaystyle \mathrm{XCl}_3$ does not dimerize. X is :
