Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) (D), (A), (C), (B)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Oxidation states: \(V_2O_5 (+5), V_2O_3 (+3), V_2O_4 (+4), Mn_2O_7 (+7)\). Basic strength decreases with increasing oxidation state & across period. Increasing basic strength: (D), (A), (C), (B)
