Question
CBSEENCH12011176

Which one of the following does not correctly represent the correct order of the property indicated aginst it? 

  • Ti < V<Cr< Mn: increasing number of oxidation states

  • Ti< V<Cr3+<Mn3+ : increasing magnetic moment

  • Ti < V < Cr < Mn : Increasing melting points

  • Ti < V < Mn < Cr : increasing second ionisation enthalpy

Solution

C.

Ti < V < Cr < Mn : Increasing melting points

Element

Oxidation states

Ti

+2,+3,+4

V

+2,+3,+4,+5

Cr

+1,+2,+3,+4,+5,+6

Mn

+1,+2,+3,+4,+5,+6,+7

Therefore, order of oxidation states is

Ti < V < Cr < Mn

b)Magnetic space moment comma space straight mu space equals space square root of straight n left parenthesis straight n plus 2 right parenthesis end root
Where comma space straight n equals space no. space of space unpaired space electrons

Ion

Outermost electronic arrangement

No. of unpaired electrons

Ti3+

3d1

1

V3+

3d2

2

Cr3+

3d3

3

Mn3+

3d4

4

Therefore, order of magnetic moment is

Ti3+ < V3+ < Cr3+ < Mn3+

In 3d- series melting point increases as we move from left to right. But Mn shows low melting point due to its complex formatting nature. It is unable to form metallic and covalent bonds.

Element

Second ionisation enthalpy

Ti

1320

V

1376

Mn

1513

Cr

1635

 Therefore, order of second ionisation enthalpy is

Ti< V< Mn< Cr
