Cupric compounds are more stable than their cuprous counterparts in solid state. This is because

A

the endothermic character of the 2nd I P of Cu is not so high

B

size of `Cu^(2+)` is less than `Cu^(+)`

C

`Cu^(2+)` has stabler electronic configuration as compared to `Cu^(+)`

D

the lattice energy released for cupric compounds is much higher than `Cu^(+)`.

Text Solution
