QAIPM-2011-Ch-1877: NEET 2011 Chemistry - Class 12 AIPM-2011-Ch-1877 Solution: By what factor does the average velocity of a gaseous molecule…

By what factor does the average velocity of a gaseous molecule increase when the temperature (in Kelvin) is doubled? 2.0 2.8 4.0 1.4

Multiple Choice Options

  • A [Ti(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+
  • B [Cr(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+
  • C [Co(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+
  • D [Zn(NH 3 ) 6 ] 2+

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Ti 3+ _ [Ar] 3d 1 4s 0 (1 unpaired electron) Cr 3+ _ [Ar] 3d 3 4s 0 (3 unpaired electrons) Co 3+ _ [Ar] 3d 6 4s 0 (0 unpaired electrons because of pairing) Zn 2+ _ [Ar] 3d 10 (no unpaired electrons) [Cr(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+ exhibits highest paramagnetic behaviour as it contains 3 unpaired electrons.
