QAIPMT-2003-Ch-2692: NEET 2003 Chemistry - Class 12 AIPMT-2003-Ch-2692 Solution: The basic character of the transition metal monoxides follows…
The basic character of the transition metal monoxides follows the order (Atomic nos. Ti = 22, V = 23, Cr = 24, Fe = 26)
Multiple Choice Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
The basic character of the transition metal
monoxide is
TiO > VO > CrO > FeO because
basic character of oxides decrease with increase
in atomic number. Oxides of transitional metals
in low oxidation state i.e., + 2 and + 3 are generally
basic except Cr 2 O 3 .
