The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both statements regarding zinc (Zn) and its dipositive form (Zn²⁺). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Atomic Number and Electronic Configuration of Zinc:** - Zinc has an atomic number of 30. - The electronic configuration of neutral zinc can be written as: \[ \text{Zn: } [\text{Ar}] 3d^{10} 4s^2 \] - Here, [Ar] represents the electron configuration of Argon, which accounts for the first 18 electrons. 2. **Determine the Electronic Configuration of Zn²⁺:** - When zinc loses two electrons to form Zn²⁺, the electrons are removed from the outermost shell first, which is the 4s orbital. - Therefore, the electronic configuration of Zn²⁺ is: \[ \text{Zn}^{2+}: [\text{Ar}] 3d^{10} \] - This indicates that the 4s electrons are lost, and the 3d electrons remain fully paired. 3. **Analyze Statement 1:** - Statement 1 claims that dipositive zinc exhibits diamagnetism due to the loss of two electrons from the 3d orbital. - This statement is **incorrect** because the electrons are actually lost from the 4s orbital, not the 3d orbital. 4. **Analyze Statement 2:** - Statement 2 states that the electronic configuration of zinc (Z=30) is \([Ar] 3d^{10} 4s^2\). - This statement is **correct** as it accurately describes the electronic configuration of neutral zinc. 5. **Conclusion:** - Based on the analysis, we conclude that: - Statement 1 is **false**. - Statement 2 is **true**. ### Final Answer: - **Statement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true.**
