Electronic confriguration of a transitio...

Electronic confriguration of a transition element X in +3 oxidation states is `[Ar]3d^(5)`.
What is its atomic number?

A

25

B

26

C

27

D

24

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`X^(3+) = [Ar]^(18) 3d^(5) = 23 ` electrons . As `X^(3+)` is formed by loss of 3 electrons from X,X will have 26 electrons. `:. `At. No. of X = 26
