Justifythe followijngstatement . " Elementsof the firsttransitionseriespossesmanypropertiesdifferent fromthose of heaviertransitionelements "

Answer»

Solution :Theheavier transitionelements belongto fourth(4d ) , fifth (5d )and SIXTH (6d)transitionseries.
Theirpropertiesare expectedto be differentformthe elementsbelonging to the first(3D)seriesdue tofollowingreasons.
(i) ATOMIC :radii: SIZEOF thetransitionthoseof the correspondingelementof thefirsttransitionseriesthoughthoseof 4dand 4d seriesare verycloseto each other.
(ii) Ionisationenthalpyof 5dseriesare higherthan thecorrespondingelement of 3d and4d series .
(iii) A tomisationhigherthan the correspondingelements of tehfirstseries.
(iv)the elementof the firsttransitionseriesgenerally formlow orhighspincomplexes. dependinguponhte higherof ligandfiled.
Howeverthe HEAVIER transitionelementsform lowspincomplexesirrespectiveof the strength ofligandfiled.
