Question 8.2 Why are Mn2+ compounds more stable than Fe2+ towards oxidation to their +3 state?


Question 8.3 Explain briefly how +2 state becomes more and more stable in the first half of the first row transition elements with increasing atomic number?


Question 8.4 To what extent do the electronic configurations decide the stability of oxidation states in the first series of the transition elements? Illustrate your answer with examples.


Question 8.5 What may be the stable oxidation state of the transition element with the following d electron configurations in the ground state of their atoms : 3d3, 3d5, 3d8 and 3d4?


Question 8.6 Name the oxometal anions of the first series of the transition metals in which the metal exhibits the oxidation state equal to its group number.


Question 8.7 What is lanthanoid contraction? What are the consequences of lanthanoid contraction?


Question 8.8
What are the characteristics of the transition elements and why are they called transition elements? Which of the d-block elements may not be regarded as the transition elements?


Question 8.9 In what way is the electronic configuration of the transition elements different from that of the non transition elements?


Question 8.10 What are the different oxidation states exhibited by the lanthanoids?


Question 8.11 Explain giving reasons:
(i) Transition metals and many of their compounds show paramagnetic behaviour.
(ii) The enthalpies of atomisation of the transition metals are high.
(iii) The transition metals generally form coloured compounds.
(iv) Transition metals and their many compounds act as good catalyst


Question 8.12 What are interstitial compounds? Why are such compounds well known for transition metals?


Question 8.13 How is the variability in oxidation states of transition metals different from that of the non transition metals? Illustrate with examples.


Question 8.14 Describe the preparation of potassium dichromate from iron chromite ore. What is the effect of increasing pH on a solution of potassium dichromate?


Question 8.15 Describe the oxidising action of potassium dichromate and write the ionic equations for its reaction with: (i) iodide (ii) iron(II) solution and (iii) H2S Exercises 235 The d- and f- Block Elements


Question 8.16 Describe the preparation of potassium permanganate. How does the acidified permanganate solution react with (i) iron(II) ions (ii) SO2 and (iii) oxalic acid? Write the ionic equations for the reactions.


Question 8.17 For M2+/M and M3+/M2+ systems the EV values for some metals are as follows: Cr2+/Cr -0.9V Cr3/Cr2+ -0.4 V Mn2+/Mn -1.2V Mn3+/Mn2+ +1.5 V Fe2+/Fe -0.4V Fe3+/Fe2+ +0.8 V Use this data to comment upon: (i) the stability of Fe3+ in acid solution as compared to that of Cr3+ or Mn3+ and (ii) the ease with which iron can be oxidised as compared to a similar process for either chromium or manganese metal.


Question 8.18 Predict which of the following will be coloured in aqueous solution? Ti3+, V3+, Cu+, Sc3+, Mn2+, Fe3+ and Co2+. Give reasons for each.

Question 8.21 How would you account for the following:
(i) Of the d4 species, Cr2+ is strongly reducing while manganese(III) is strongly oxidising.
(ii) Cobalt(II) is stable in aqueous solution but in the presence of complexing reagents it is easily oxidised.
(iii) The d1 configuration is very unstable in ions.


Question 8.22 What is meant by ‘disproportionation’? Give two examples of disproportionation reaction in aqueous solution.


Question 8.23 Which metal in the first series of transition metals exhibits +1 oxidation state most frequently and why?

Question 8.29 The chemistry of the actinoid elements is not so smooth as that of the lanthanoids. Justify this statement by giving some examples from the oxidation state of these elements.


Question 8.30 Which is the last element in the series of the actinoids? Write the electronic configuration of this element. Comment on the possible oxidation state of this element.
