Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) \(V\) (\(Z=23\)): \([Ar]3d^3 4s^2 \Rightarrow V^{2+}\): \([Ar]3d^3\). Unpaired electrons = 3. (B) \(Cr\) (\(Z=24\)): \([Ar]3d^5 4s^1 \Rightarrow Cr^{2+}\): \([Ar]3d^4\). Unpaired electrons = 4. (C) \(Ti\) (\(Z=22\)): \([Ar]3d^2 4s^2 \Rightarrow Ti^{2+}\): \([Ar]3d^2\).…
