ANSWER :D
23842.

The transition metals and their compounds have paramagnetic properties. This is due to the reason that ions of transition metals have unpaired electrons in (n-1)d orbitals. As the number of unpaired Sc to Mn, the paramagnetic character increases accodingly. From Mn onwards, this character decreases as electrons get paired up. The paramagnetic behaviour is expressed in terms of magnetic moment which is because of the spin of unpaired electron (n). It is given as Magnetic moment = sqrt(n(n+2))B.M Majority of transition metal compounds are coloured both in solid state as well as in aqueous solution. due to d-d transition in whichunpaired electrons from the lower energy d-orbitals are transferred to higher energy d-orbitals. The energy of this transition correspond to the radiation in visibe region. Thus, when white light falls on such a transition metal compound, some light energy corresponding to a particular colour is absorbed and one or more electrons are raised from lower energy set of orbitals to those of higher energy. With the absorption of radiations corresponding to specific colour from the white light, a colour known asd the complementary colour is observed or transmitted. For which one of the following ions, the colour is not due to a d-d transition:

Answer»

`CrO_(4)^(2-)`
`Cu(NH_(3))_(4)^(2+)`
`Ti(H_(2)O)_(6)^(3+)`
`CoF_(6)^(3-)`

Solution :N//A

What is the standard electrode (Half-cell) potential ? Give its uses.

Answer»

Solution :Potential of standard electrode (Half-cell):
Standard condition means at 298K temperature and 1 bar pressure of gases and 1M concentration of solution, the reproduction potential of electrode (Half-cell) is called as standard electrode potential which has volt unit.
Construction of emf series: When half cell reaction are arranged in a decreasing ORDER of their standard reduction potential then such series of half-cell is known as emf series. it is as follows :

(i) A negative `E^(Theta)` means that the redox couple is a stronger REDUCING agent than the `H^(+)|H_(2)` couple.
(ii) A positive `E^(Theta)` means that the redox couple is a weaker reducing agent than the `H^(+)|H_(2)` couple.
Determine the stability order of reduction form:
If the standard electrode potential of an electrode is GREATER than zero then its reduced form is more stable compared to hydrogen gas.
E.g., stability order: `Ag gt Cu gt H_(2)`
If the standard electrode potential is negative then hydrogen gas is more stable than the reduced form of the species.
e.g., stability order : `H_(2) gt Pb gt Sn gt Ni gt Fe gt Cr gt Zn`
(iii) To determine strength as oxidizing-reducing agent:
Positive `E^(Theta)`: The standard electrode potential for fluorine is the highest in the Table indicating that fluorine gas (`F_(2)`) has the maximum tendency to get reduce to fluoride ions `(F^(-))` and therefore fluorine gas is the strongest oxidising agent and fluoride ion is the weakest reducing agent.
Negative `E^(Theta)`: Lithium has the lowest electrode potential indicating that lithium io is the weakest oxidising agent while lithium metal is the most powerrful reducing agent in an aqueous solution.
Note: The standard electrode potential decreases and with this, decreases the oxidising power of the species on the LEFT and increases the reducing powre of the species on the right hand side of the reaction e.g., `F_(2)` is strong oxidizing agent and `F^(-)` is strong reducing agent.
(iv) To determine the possibilities of reaction : The half-cell with high standard reduction potential will give more reduction reaction with respect to less standard reduction potetnial, which gives reduction reactions.
`E_((Cu^(2)|Cu))^(Theta)=+0.34V and H^(+)|H_(2(g))` of `E^(Theta)=0V`
`[E_((Cu^(2+)|Cu))^(Theta) gt E_(H^(+)|H_(2))]`
So `H^(+)` ion can.t oxidize Cu. and so Cu metal can.t be dissolved in HCl.
`2H_((aq))^(+)+Cu_((S)) to `Reaction will not occurs
But `H_(2(g))+Cu_((aq))^(2+) to 2H^(+)+Cu_((S))` reaction will occur
Hydrogen gas can reduced copper ion into copper metal.
Reduction: `Cu_((aq))^(2+)+2e^(-) to Cu_((S)) (E_(Cu^(2+)|Cu)^(Theta)" More")`
Oxidation `:H_(2(g)) to 2H_((aq))^(+) + 2e^(-) (E_(Cu^(2+)|Cu)" Less")`
Note: Oxidation of Cu metal into `Cu^(2+)` ion is possible by nitrate ions of nitric acid.

SOLUTION :Oxyacid of phosphorus which contains P-H bonds can act as a reducing agent. `H_(3)PO_(3)` contains ONE P-H bond and hence acts as a reducing agent.
