  1. A \(\mathrm{Ti}^{2+}\) and \(\mathrm{V}^{2+}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\) and \(\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{Cr}^{2+}\) and \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{Co}^{2+}\) and \(\mathrm{Ti}^{2+}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{Cr}^{2+}\) and \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Cr}^{2+}(Z=24):[\mathrm{Ar}] 3 d^4 4 s^0 ; \quad 4 \quad\) unpaired electrons \(\quad \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}(Z=26):[\mathrm{Ar}] 3 d^6 4 s^0\); 4 unpaired electrons \(\mathrm{Cr}^{2+}\) and \(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\) have same number of unpaired electrons, hence they have the same…
