The heavier elements of group 13, 14 and 15 besides their group oxidation state exhibit another oxidation state which is two units lower than the group oxidation state. The stability of lower oxidation state increases down the group. The display of lower oxidation state is due to inert pair effect. QWhich of the halide does not exist?

The IUPAC definition of a transition element is that it is an element that has an incomplete d-subshell in either the neutral atom or its ion. Thus the group 12 elements are member of the d-block but are not transition elements. Chemically solft members of the d-block occurs as sulphide minerals and are partially oxidised to obtain the metal, the more electropositive 'hard' metals occurs as oxides and are extracted by reduction. Opposite to p-block elements, the higher oxidation states are favoured by the heavier elements of d-block Metals on the right of the d-block tend to exist in low oxidation states and form complexes with the ligands. Square-planar complexes are common for the platinum metals and gold in oxidation states that yield d^8 electronic configuration, which include RH(I),Ir(I),Pd(II),Pt(II) and Au(III). The most distinctive features/properties of transition metal complex is their wide range of colours.The crystal field theory attributes the colour of the coordination compounds to d-d transition of the electron.It is important to note that (a) in absence of ligand, crystal field spilling does not occur and hence the substances is colourless, (b) the type of ligand also influences the colour of the complexes. Which of the following has dsp^2 hybridisation and is diamagnetic in nature ? (i) Na_4[Cr(CO)_4] , (ii) [Ni(DMGH)_2] , (iii) [PtHBr(PEt_3)_2] (iv) [As(SCN)_4]^(3-) , (v) [AuBr_4]^(-)
