Which transition element ion \(\text{M}^{3+}\) has electronic configuration \(3d^5 4s^0\)?
- A \(\text{Cr}^{3+}\)
- B \(\text{Mn}^{3+}\)
- C \(\text{Fe}^{3+}\)
- D \(\text{Co}^{3+}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\text{Fe}^{3+}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Given \(\text{M}^{3+}\) configuration: \(3d^5 4s^0\) Neutral M configuration: \(3d^6 4s^2\) Atomic number \(Z = 2 + 6 + 18 = 26\) Element is Fe. Therefore, the ion is \(\text{Fe}^{3+}\).

Transition metals form a large number of complexes or coordination compounds in which the metal atoms are bound to a number of anions or neutral molecules. The valence bond theory explain the formation, magnetic behaviour and geometrical shapes while the crystal field theory explains the effect of different crystal fields on the degeneracy of d-orbitals energies of the central metal atom/ion. This provides for the quantitative estimation of orbital separation energies, magnetic moments and spectral and stability parameters.

Pink CUET 2023 Easy - Osmotic pressure measurements are less accurate and difficult to carry out. Therefore, this method is not useful for measuring molecular weights. But it is used to find out molecular weights of polymers eg. plastics, proteins and starch having many monomer units. Knowing the value of osmotic pressure of a given solution, molecular weight of the solute can be calculated using Van't Hoff equation.
Determine the Molarity of a solution containing 4g of NaOH in 1L solutionCUET 2023 Easy - Read the passage carefully and answer the questions based on the passage:
The number of reacting species (atoms, ions or molecules) taking part in an elementary reaction, which must collide simultaneously in order to bring about a chemical reaction is called molecularity of a reaction. In the rate equation Rate \(=k[\mathrm{~A}]^x[\mathrm{~B}]^y\)
\(x\) and \(y\) indicate how sensitive the rate is to the change in concentration of A and B, respectively. Sum of these exponents, i.e., \(x +y\) gives the overall order of a reaction where \(x\) and \(y\) represent the order with respect to the reactants A and B respectively. Hence, the sum of powers of the concentration of the reactants in the rate law expression is called the order of that chemical reaction. For a first order reaction, the concentration of the reactant varies as \([\mathrm{R}]=[\mathrm{R}]_0 e^{-k t}\)
The conversion of molecules \(X\) to \(Y\) follows second order kinetics. If the concentration of \(X\) is increased to four times, how does it affect the rate of formation of \(Y\) ?CUET 2025 Hard
