Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The ions \(Ti ^{+2}, V^{+2}, Cr ^{+2}\) are strong reducing agents and will liberate hydrogen from a dilute acid, eg. \(2 Cr _{(\text {aq. })}^{+2}+2 H _{(\text {aq. })}^{+} \rightarrow 2 Cr _{(\text {aq. })}^{+3}+ H _2(g)\)
