`3d-, 4d-` and `5d-` series consists of `10` elements each? Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In `3d, 4d` and `5d` series, the differenting electron enters to `(n-1)d`-subshell. The maximum capacity of `d`-subshell is to accommodate `10` electrons. Thus, there are `10` elements each in `3d, 4d` and `5d` series `[(n-1)d^(1-10)]`.

In 3d , 4d and 5d series which element is expected to have highest IE_(1) ?

In 3d , 4d and 5d series which element is expected to have highest IE_(1) ?

The 4d and 5d series of transition metals have more frequency metal-metal bonding in their compounds than do the 3d metals. Explain.

Assertion : The order of atomic radii of Cu, Ag and Au is Cu lt Ag ~~ Au . Reason : The atomic radii of 4d series elements are larger than those of 3d series elements but generally the radii of 4d and 5d series elements are almost identical.

Assertion : 4d and 5d series elements have nearly same atomic radius. Reason : Lanthanoid contraction.

In 3d series which element have highest IE_(3) ?

In 3d series which element have highest IE_(3) ?

Explain giving a suitable reason for each of the following : (i) Transition metals and their compounds are generally found to be good catalysts. (ii) Metal-metals bonding is more frequent for the 4d and the 5d series of transitions metals than that for the 3d series.

The transition element ( with few exceptions ) show a large number of oxidation states . The various oxidation states are related to the electronic configuration of their atoms. The variable oxidation states of a transition metal is due to the involvement of (n-1)d and outer ns electrons . For the first five elements of 3d transition series , the minimum oxidation state is equal to the number of electrons in 4s shell and the maximum oxidation state is equal to the sum of 4s and 3d electrons. The relative stability of various oxidation states of a given element can be explained on the basis of stability of d^(0),d^(5) and d^(10) configuration . In 3d series, the maximum oxidation state is shown by
