Electronic confriguration of a transitio...

Electronic confriguration of a transition element X in +3 oxidation states is `[Ar]3d^(5)`.
What is its atomic number?

A

25

B

26

C

27

D

24

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Electronic configuration of `X^(3+) ` is `[Ar]3d^(5)`
It repersents the total number of `e^(Theta)` and oxidation state.
Therefore, atomic number of X = 18 + 5 + 3 = 26
Hence, option (b) is correct.
