Which metal in the first series of transition metals exhibits+1 oxidation state most frequently and why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`Cu` has the electronic configuration `3d^(10)4s^(1). `it can easily lose `4s^(1)` electron to give the stable `3d^(10)` configuration Hence , it show +1 oxidation state . We write as `Cu`(I)`
