The point of dissimilarity between lanthanides and actinides is:
1. | Three outermost shells are partially filled. |
2. | They show oxidation state of +3 (common). |
3. | They are called inner transition elements. |
4. | They are radioactive in nature. |
A metal having the strongest metallic bond among the following is:
1. | V | 2. | Fe |
3. | Cr | 4. | Sc |
Statement 1: | Highest oxidation state of a metal is exhibited in its oxide or fluoride only. |
Statement 2: | Both oxide and fluoride ions are able to oxidise metals. |
1. | Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false. |
2. | Statement 1 is false, Statement 2 is true. |
3. | Both Statements 1 and Statement 2 are true. |
4. | Both Statements 1 and Statement 2 are false. |
Zr (Z = 40) and Hf (Z = 72) have similar atomic and ionic radii because of:
1. | Lanthanoid contraction |
2. | Having similar chemical properties |
3. | Belonging to the same group |
4. | Diagonal relationship |
Consider the following graph.
Based on the graph above, it can be concluded that the element with a melting point higher than 3000 K will be:
1. | Y | 2. | X |
3. | Z | 4. | None of the above |
For M2+/M, and M3+/M2+, the values of some metals are given in the table below:
Cr+2/Cr = -0.9 V | Cr+3/Cr+2 = -0.4V |
Mn+2/Mn = -1.2V | Mn+3/Mn+2 = +1.5 V |
Fe+2/Fe = -0.4V | Fe+3/Fe+2 = +0.8 V |
The correct inference(s) from the above data is/are:
1. | The increasing order of their stability is Mn3+< Fe3+< Cr3+ |
2. | The increasing order of the above-mentioned metals ability to get oxidized is: Fe < Cr < Mn |
3. | The increasing order of the above-mentioned metals ability to get oxidized is: Fe > Cr > Mn |
4. | Both 1 and 2 |
The reaction(s) involved in the preparation of potassium dichromate from iron chromite ore is/are:
1. | FeCr2O4 + NaOH + O2 → Na2CrO4 + Fe2O3 + H2O |
2. | Na2CrO4 + H2SO4 (conc.) → Na2Cr2O7 + Na2SO4 + H2O |
3. | Na2Cr2O7 + KCl→ K2Cr2O7 + NaCl |
4. | All of the above. |
The correct statement(s) about transition elements are:
1. | +2, and +3 oxidation states are more common for elements in the first transition series, while higher oxidation states are more common for the heavier elements. |
2. | The heavier transition elements form low-spin complexes only. |
3. | The atomic sizes of the elements of the first transition series are smaller than those of the heavier elements (elements of 2nd and 3r transition series). |
4. | All of the above. |
