The correct statement is
(1) Green vitriol and blue vitriol are isomorphous
(2) KMnO4 and K2Cr2O7 are coloured due to d-d transitions
(3) Cu2Cl2 and Ag2S are coloured
(4) Upon strong heating paramagnetic gases are evolved by CuSO4 and AgNO3

The incorrect statement about transition elements is:
1. The most stable oxidation state is +3 and its stability increases across the period.
2. Transition elements of 3d-series atomic sizes increase from Cr to Cu.
3. Examples of alloys of transition metals with non-transition metals are brass (copper-zinc) and bronze (copper-tin).
4. Some transition elements like Ni, Fe, and Cr may show zero oxidation state in some of their compounds.
1. | 18 | 2. | 14 |
3. | 4 | 4. | 21 |
Which of the following explains the primary cause of lanthanoid contraction?
