$\left[ Ar \right] 3{ d }^{ 3 }4{ s }^{ 0 }$ ,having unpaired electrons as

$3$ .Hence magnetic moment of

${ Cr }^{ +3 }$ is

$\sqrt { 3(3+2) }=3.87 BM$

The second and third row elements of transition metals resemble each other much more than they resemble the first row because of:

0%
lanthanoid contraction which results in almost same radii of second and third row metals
0%
diagonal relationship between second and third row elements
0%
similar ionisation enthalpy of second and third row elements
0%
similar oxidation states of second and third row metals

Generally transition elements form coloured salts due to the presence of unpaired electrons. Which of the following compounds will be coloured in solid state?

0%
$Ag_2SO_4$
0%
$CuF_2$
0%
$ZnF_2$
0%
$Cu_2Cl_2$

Explanation

The respective transition elements exists in

$Ag^{+}-{4d}^{10}5s^0$ , (have completely filled d orbital)

$Cu^{+2}-3d^{9}4s^0$ , (have incompletely filled d orbital)

$Zn^{+2}-3d^{10}4s^0$ , (have completely filled d orbital)

$Cu^{+1}-3d^{10}4s^0$ (have completely filled d orbital),

Since,

$Cu^{+2}$ has unpaired electron it will show electron transitions.

Hence will be coloured.

Metallic radii of some transition elements are given below. Which of these elements will have the highest density?

Element	$Fe$	$Co$	$Ni$	$Cu$

$(I) < (II) < (IV) < (III)$
0%
$(II) < (III) < (I) < (IV)$
0%
$(IV) < (III) < (II) < (I)$

Explanation

1) [Fe(CN)

$_6]^{4-}$

Here, Fe is present as Fe

$^{2+}$

Electronic configuration of Fe

$^{2+}$ is [Ar]3d

$^6 4s^0$

Since CN

$^-$ is a strong field ligand so when it approaches Fe

$^{2+}$ it pair up the e

$^-$ s and result in the formation of low spin complex.

No. of unpaired e

$^-$ s =0

So, magnetic moment for n unpaired e

$^-$ s

$\sqrt{n(n+2)} BM$

2) [Fe(CN)

$_6]^{3-}$

Here, Fe is present as Fe

$^{3+}$

Electronic configuration of Fe

$^{3+}$ is [Ar]3d

$^5 4s^0$

Since , CN

$^-$ is a strong field ligand so when it approaches Fe

$^{2+}$ it pair up the e

$^-$ s so,

No. of unpaired e

$^-$ s =1

So, magnetic moment for n unpaired e

$^-$ s

$\sqrt{1\times (1+2)}$

$\sqrt{3}$ BM.

3) [Cr(NH

$_3)_6]^{3+}$

Electronic configuration of Cr

$^{3+}$ is [Ar]3d

$^3 4s^0$

Since , NH

$_3$ is a strong field ligand so it pairs up the electrons when it approaches when it approaches Cr

$^{3+}$

No. of unpaired e

$^-$ s =3

So, magnetic moment =

$\sqrt{3(3+2)}$

$\sqrt{1\times 5}$

$\sqrt{15}$ BM

4)[Ni(H

$_2O)_4]^{2+}$

Electronic configuration of Ni

$^{2+}$ is [Ar]3d

$^8 4s^0$

Since , H

$_2$ O is a weak field ligand. it does not pair up the e

$^-$ s and forms outer orbital complex.

No. of unpaired e

$^-$ s =2

So, magnetic moment =

$\sqrt{2(2+2)}$

$\sqrt{8}$ BM

But because of orbital effect it will be little lesser. So, correct order is iii)>iv)> ii)> i)

Consider the following statements
I.

$La(OH)_3$ is least basic among hydroxides of lanthanides.
II.

$Zr^{4+}$ and

$Hf^{4+}$ possess almost the same ionic radii.
III.

$Ce^{4+}$ can act as an oxidizing agent.
Which of the above is/are true?

0%
I and III
0%
II and III
0%
II only
0%
I and II

Explanation

The ionic radii of

$Zr^{4+}$ and

$Hf^{4+}$ are almost similar due to the lanthanide contraction which means the steady decrease in the size of the atoms with the increase from lanthanum through Lutetium due to the poor shielding of the

$4f$

$e^-$ , the

$e^-$ pull towards the nucleus increases thereby decreasing the size.

$Ce^{4+}$ act as oxidizing agent as it oxidizes other elements by itself getting reduced as

$Ce^{3+}$ is more stable than

$Ce^{4+}$ oxidation state so in order to attain stable

$+3$ oxidation it gets reduced.

The basic characteristics of lanthanoid hydroxides decrease down the group.

Thus

$La(OH)_3$ is the most basic.

Thus only statement II and III are correct.

Which of the following statements concerning lanthanide elements is false?

0%
All lanthanides are highly dense metals.
0%
The characteristic oxidation state of lanthanide elements is +3.
0%
Lanthanides are separated from one another by ion exchange method.
0%
Ionic radii of trivalent lanthanides steadily increase with an increase in the atomic number.

Which ion has magnetic moment

$5.90$ B.M?

0%
$Fe^{2+}$
0%
$Fe^{3+}$
0%
$Co^{2+}$
0%
$Mn^{4+}$

Explanation

$\displaystyle \mu = \sqrt {n(n+2)}=5.9$ B.M.

$\displaystyle {n(n+2)}=5.9 \times 5.9 = 34.8$

$\displaystyle n^2+2n= 34.8$

$\displaystyle n^2+2n- 34.8=0$

$\displaystyle n= \dfrac {-b \pm \sqrt {b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\displaystyle n= \dfrac {-2 \pm \sqrt {2^2-4(1)(- 34.8)}}{2(1)}$

$\displaystyle n= \dfrac {-2 \pm \sqrt {4+139}}{2}$

$\displaystyle n= \dfrac {-2 \pm \sqrt {143}}{2}$

$\displaystyle n= \dfrac {-2 \pm 12}{2}$

$\displaystyle n= \dfrac {10}{2}$ or

$\displaystyle n= \dfrac {-14}{2}$

$\displaystyle n= 5$ or

$\displaystyle n= -7$

The negative value is discarded as the number of electrons cannot be negative.

$\displaystyle \therefore n= 5$

$\displaystyle Fe ^{3+}$ ion (with valence shell electronic configuration

$\displaystyle 3d^5 4s^0$ has magnetic moment 5.90 B.M. It has 5 unpaired electrons.

Hence, option

$B$ is correct.

Which of the following ion is paramagnetic?

0%
$Cu^{+}$
0%
$Zn^{2+}$
0%
$O_{2}^{2-}$
0%

$Cu^+:3d^{10}$ : 0 unpaired electron

$Zn^{2+}:3d^{10}$ : 0 unpaired electron

$O_2^{2-}:\sigma2p^2\pi2p^4\pi^{*}2p^4$ : 0 unpaired electron

$Cr^{3+}:3d^{3}$ : 3 unpaired electron

thus option D is correct.

Which of the following ion has the maximum theoretical magnetic moment?

0%
$V^{3+}$
0%
$Cr^{3+}$
0%
$Ti^{3+}$
0%
$Co^{3+}$

Metal ion with maximum number of unpaired electrons will have highest magnetic momemt.

$V^{3+}$ :

$3d^2$ : 2 unpaired electrons

$Cr^{3+}$ :

$3d^3$ : 3 unpaired electrons

$Ti^{3+}$ :

$3d^1$ : 1 unpaired electrons

$3d^6$ : 4 unpaired electrons

Thus

$Co^{3+}$ will have maximum magnetic moment.

option D is correct

0%
$PtCl_2$ catalyzes the oxidation of ethyne to ethanal in the Wacker process.
0%
Ni in presence of hydrogen for conversion of vegetable oil to ghee.

Explanation

Wacker's process is the oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde in the presence of

$PdCl_2$ as the catalyst.

All Cu(II) halides are known except the iodide. The reason for it is that:

0%
iodide is a bulky ion.
0%
$Cu^{2+}$ oxidizes iodide to iodine.
0%
$Cu^{2+}_{(aq)}$ has much more negative hydration enthalpy.
0%
$Cu^{2+}$ ion has smaller size.

Explanation

All

$Cu(II)$ halides are known except the iodine because

${ Cu }^{ 2+ }$ oxidizes iodine to iodine

${ 2Cu }^{ 2+ }+{ 4I }^{ -1 }\rightarrow 2{ CuI }_{ \left( S \right) }+{ I }_{ 2 }$ .

Hence, option B is correct.

Which of the following is paramagnetic as well as coloured ion?

0%

$Na_{2}[CuCl_{4}]$
0%
$Na_{2}[CdCl_{2}]$
0%
$[Cr(H_{2}O)_{6}]Cl_{3}$
0%
all of the above

Explanation

The outer shell electronic configuration of

$Cu^{2+}$ has

$3d^{9}$ configuration and contain 1 unpaired electron, thus it is coloured.

$Na_2[CdCl_2]$ , compound is not coloured because of central atom

$Cd$ which has

$4d^{10} 5s^2$ electronic configuration so transition do not occur.

Hence option B

0%
$1.06\mathring{ A}$
0%
$0.85\mathring{ A}$
0%
$1.60\mathring{ A}$

Explanation

The ionic radii of

$Ln^{3+}$ reduces from

$La^{3+}$ to

0%
$ScCl_3$
0%
$TiCl_4$
0%

$M_V=\sqrt {3(3+2)}=\sqrt {15}=3.18$ BM

$M_{Cr}=\sqrt {6(6+2)}=\sqrt {48}=6.92$ BM

$M_{Mn}=\sqrt{5(5+2)}=\sqrt {35}=5.91$ BM

$M_{Fe}=\sqrt{4(4+2)}=\sqrt {24}=4.89$ BM

So,

$Cr$ is having highest magnetic moment. It can be concluded that more is the number of unpaired

$e^-s$ , higher is the magnetic moment.

Which of the following species have same magnetic moment?

0%
$Cr^{+3}$
0%
$Fe^{+3}$
0%
$Co^{+2}$
0%
$Ni^{+2}$

Explanation

$Cr^{3+}:4s^03d^3$ number of unpaired

$e^-=3$

$Fe^{3+}:4s^03d^5$ number of unpaired

$e^-=5$

$Ca^{2+}:4s^03d^6$ number of unpaired

$e^-=4$

$Ni^{2+}:4s^03d^7$ number of unpaired

$e^-=3$

$Cr^{3+}$ and

$Ni^{2+}$ have same number of unpaired

$e^-$ .

$\therefore$ They have same magnetic moment.

The ratio of magnetic moments of

$Fe(III)$ and

$Co(II)$ is:

0%
$7 : 3$
0%
$3 : 7$
0%
$\sqrt7 : \sqrt3$
0%
$\sqrt3 : \sqrt7$

Explanation

Electronic configuration of

$Fe^{3+}:[Ar]3d^54s^0$

So number of unpaired elctrons is

$n=5$

Hence,

$\mu=\sqrt{n(n+2)}=\sqrt{35}$

Now,

Electronic configuration of

$Co^{2+}:[Ar]3d^74s^0$

So number of unpaired electros is

$n=3$

Hence,

$\mu=\sqrt{n(n+2)}=\sqrt{15}$

So, Ratio of Magnetic moments of

$Fe^{3+}$ and

$Co^{2+}$ is

$:\dfrac{\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{3}}$

Which of the following is diamagnetic ion?

0%
$Zn^{2+}$
0%
$Ni^{2+}$
0%
$Co^{2+}$
0%
$Cu^{2+}$

Explanation

${ Zn }^{ 2+ }\equiv \left[ Ne \right] { 3s }^{ 2 }{ 3p }^{ 6 }{ 4s }^{ 0 }{ 3d }^{ 10 }$

It is diamagnetic, so no unpaired

${ e }^{ - }s$ .

$\mu = \sqrt{15}$ is true for the pair:

0%
$Co^{+2}, Cr^{+3}$
0%
$Fe^{+2}, Cr^{+3}$
0%
$Fe^{+3}, Cr^{+2}$
0%
$Mn^{+2}, Fe^{+2}$

Explanation

The electronic configuration of

$Co^{2+}$ is;

$[Ar]4s^0 3d^7$

Hence there are three unpaired electrons in

$Co^{2+}$

Now the elctronic configuration of

$Cr^{3+}$ is;

$[Ar]3d^3$
Hence there are 3 unpaired electrons in

$Cr^{3+}$

We know magnetic moment

$\mu=\sqrt{(n(n+2)}$ $$

where n is number of unpaired electrons.

So when n=3,

$\mu=\sqrt{(3(3+2)}=\sqrt{15}$

Hence option A is correct answer.

0%
$V^{2+}$
0%
$V^{+3}$
0%
$VO^{2+}$
0%
$VO_{2}^{+}$

Explanation

$V^{2+}\longrightarrow$ Mauve/Lavender.

$V^{3+}\longrightarrow$ Green.

$VO^{2+}\longrightarrow$ Blue.

$VO_2^{+}\longrightarrow$ Yellow.

Maximum ferromagnetism is found in ?

0%
$Fe$
0%
$Ni$
0%
$Co$
0%
$None$

Explanation

As Iron have highest value of saturation, Magnetization

$M_s$ which is defined as the magnetic moment density when the material is subjected to a field strong enough to align all its moments.

$Fe \ 1707 \ M_s$

$Co \ 1400 \ M_s$

$Ni \ 485 \ M_s$

An aqueous solution containing

$V^{x+}$ ion has magnetic moment equal to

$\sqrt {15} \ BM$ . Therefore, the x is:

0%
$5$
0%
$2$
0%
$3$
0%
$4$

Explanation

Let

$n$ be the number of unpaired electrons.

Magnetic moment

$= \sqrt {n(n+2)}= \sqrt {15}$

$\Rightarrow n=3$

Atomic number of Vanadium is

$23$ . So, it must loose all its

$4s$ electrons to get

$3$ unpaired d electrons.

$\therefore$ value of

$x$ will be

$2$

Which of the following species do not exist?

0%
$PbF_4$
0%
$PbCl_4$
0%
$PbO_2$
0%
$Pbl_4$

Explanation

$PbF_4$ exists but

$PbI_4$ does not exist as

$I_2$ reduces

$Pb(II)$ to

$Pb$ and oxidizes

$I$ to

$I_2$ . Since,

$I_2$ is not strong reducing agent to reduce

$Pb(II)$ to

$Pb$ . Hence,

$PbI_2$ is formed and not

$PbI_4$ .

Which of the following complex compounds will exibit highest paramagnetic behavior?

0%
$[Ti({ NH }_{ 3 }{ ) }_{ 6 }{ ] }^{ 3+ }$
0%
$[Cr({ NH }_{ 3 }{ ) }_{ 6 }{ ] }^{ 3+ }$
0%
$[Co({ NH }_{ 3 }{ ) }_{ 6 }{ ] }^{ 3+ }$
0%
$[{ Zn }(NH_{ 3 }{ ) }_{ 4 }{ ] }{ Cl }_{ 2 }$

Explanation

${ T }i^{ 3+ }-\left[ Ne \right] { 3s }^{ 2 }{ 3p }^{ 6 }{ 4s }^{ 0 }{ 3d }^{ 1 }$

${ Zn }^{ 2+ }-\left[ Ne \right] { 3s }^{ 2 }{ 3p }^{ 6 }{ 4s }^{ 0 }{ 3d }^{ 10 }\quad \} -$ not much paramagnetic

${ Cr }^{ 3+ }\rightarrow { d }_{ 3 }$ configuration

$\rightarrow { t }_{ 2 g}$ means paramagnetic

${ Co }^{ 3+ }\rightarrow { d }_{ 6 }$ configuration

$\rightarrow { NH }_{ 3 }$ strong field ligand

So, it would be

${ d }_{ 6 }$ (low spin) diamagnetic.

Which of the following ions have zero value of magnetic moment?

0%
$Sc^{3+}$
0%
$Ti^{4+}$
0%
$Zn^{2+}$
0%
None of these

Explanation

It's because

$Sc^{3+}$ does not have any electrons left in its d orbital. Sc has theelectron configuration $[Ar](4s)^2(3d)^1$ but in order to get its +3 oxidation state, it has to lose 3 electrons, starting with the two 4s electrons and followed by the lone 3d electron.

Hence n=0 which makes magnetic moment zero.

The ratio of spin only magnetic moment of

$Fe^{3+}$ and

$CO^{2+}$ is:

0%
$\sqrt { 24 } : \sqrt { 15 }$
0%
$7 : 3$
0%
$\sqrt { 35 } : \sqrt { 15 }$
0%
$\sqrt { 5 } : \sqrt { 7 }$

Number of identical Cr-O bonds in dichromate ion

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}$ is :

0%
4
0%
6
0%
7
0%
8

Explanation

The correct answer is - There are '6' identical Cr - O bonds in the dichromate ion

$(Cr_2O_7^{-2}).$

In a dichromate ion

$(Cr_2O_7^{-2}).$ , there are 6 terminal Cr – O bonds. All these bonds are equivalent due to resonance.

The Dichromate ions

$(Cr_2O_7^{-2}).$ are oxoanions of chromium in the oxidation state +6.

Hence option B is correct answer.
