Statement (I) \(\mathrm{Co}^{2+}\) has higher magnetic moment than \(\mathrm{Cr}^{3+}\). Statement (II) Ionisation enthalpies of Ce, Pr and \(\mathrm{Nd}\) are higher than \(\mathrm{Th}, \mathrm{Pa}, \mathrm{U}\). Which of the following is correct?

  1. A Both (l) and (II) are not correct
  2. B Both (I) and (II) are correct
  3. C (l) is correct but (II) is not correct
  4. D (l) is not correct but (II) is correct
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (l) is not correct but (II) is correct

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Statement (I) is not correct, as magnetic moment of \(\mathrm{Cr}^{3+}\) is more than of \(\mathrm{CO}^{2+}\). But, statement (II) is correct, as I.P. of Ce, Pr and Nd are higher than th, Pa and U. Thus, the correct option is (4).
