The correct order of increasing melting point is

Consider the following statements in respect of lanthanides, which of the statements are incorrect?

(i) $$\mathrm{La}(\mathrm{OH})_3$$ is least basic among the hydroxides of lanthanides

(ii) The lanthanide ions $$\mathrm{Yb}^{2+}, \mathrm{Lu}^{3+}$$ and $$\mathrm{Ce}^{4+}$$ are diamagnetic in nature.

(iii) $$\mathrm{Ce}^{4+}$$ can act as an oxidising agent

(iv) $$\operatorname{Ln}$$ (III) compounds are generally colourless

(v) Ionic radii of $$\mathrm{Ce}^{3+}$$ is greater than $$\mathrm{Yb}^{3+}$$

Arrange the following ions in the increasing order of their $$\Delta H_{(\text {hydration})}$$ values.

$$\mathrm{Cr}^{2+}, \mathrm{Co}^{2+}, \mathrm{Mn}^{2+}, \mathrm{Ni}^{2+}$$

The permanganate ion in acid medium acts as an oxidant and gets converted to its lower oxidation state. What would be the spin only magnetic moment of such reduced manganese ion?
