Pick out the correct statement from the following:
1. Cobalt (III) is more stable in octahedral complexes.
2. Zinc forms coloured ions or complexes
3. Most of the d-block elements and their compounds are ferromagnetic. ltBrgt 4. Osmium shows (VIII) oxidation state
5. cobalt (II) is more stable in octahedral complexes.

A

1 and 2

B

1 and 3

C

2 and 4

D

1 and 4

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

In `Co^(+3)` ion, electronic configuration `|Ar|_(18)3d^(6)4s^(0)`. For octahedral complex 4 unpaired electron get paired and in configuration become `t_(2g)^(6)eg^(0)` and hybridization `d^(2)sp^3`
Os has maximum VIII oxidation state.

The correct statement(s) from among the following is//are : (i) all the d and f -block elements are metals (ii) all the d and f -block elements form coloured ions (iii) all the d - and f -block elments form paramagnetic ions

How will you account for the following : (i) Cobalt (II) is stable in aqueous solution but in the presence of a complexing agent, it is easily oxidized. (ii) Out of d^(4) species, Cr^(2+) is strongly reducing while Mn^(2+) is strongly oxidising .

State the reason for the following : (i) Cu (I) ion is not stable in an aqueous solution. (ii) Unlike Cr^(3+),Mn^(2+),Fe^(3+) and the subsequent other M^(2+) ions of the 3d series, the 4d and 5d series metals generally do not form stable oxidation states.

Which of the following statements are wrong (I) Bi^(3+) is more stable than Bi^(5+) (II) Mn shows +8 oxidation state (III) The oxidation state of an element is always less than or equal to its group number (IV) s-block elements show variable oxidation states The answer is
