Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q2. Which of the following d block element has half filled penultimate d sub shell as well as half filled valence sub shell?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Cr [Ar] 3d5 4s1

Q3. Among the transition metals of 3d series, the one that has highest negative ( M2+ /M) standard electrode potential is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q4. Which one of the following ions has the same number of unpaired electrons as present in V3+?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q5. The magnetic moment of Mn2+ ion is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Mn2+ => 3d5 contains 5 unpaired electrons

n=5 ; … = √n(n+2) BM

= √[5(5+2)] = √35 = BM


Q6. Which of the following compounds is colourless?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Ti4+ contains no unpaired electrons in d orbital, hence no d-d transition.

Q7. the catalytic behaviour of transition metals and their compounds is ascribed mainly due to
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q8. The correct order of increasing oxidizing power in the series
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

VO2+ {+5} < Cr2O72− {+6} < MnO4 {+7}

greater the oxidation state, higher is the xidizing power
