Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\left[\mathrm{Mn}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{4+}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+}\) \(\mathrm{Cr} \Rightarrow(\mathrm{Ar}) 3 \mathrm{~d}^{5} 4 \mathrm{~s}^{1}\) \(\mathrm{Cr}^{+3} \Rightarrow(\mathrm{Ar}) 3 \mathrm{~d}^{3} 4 \mathrm{~s}^{0}\)
