Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : Ionisation enthalpy increases along each series of the transition elements from left to right. However, small variations occur.

Reason (R) : There is corresponding increase in nuclear charge which accompanies the filling of electrons in the inner d-orbitals.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : Ionisation enthalpies of early actinoids are lower than for early lanthanoids.

Reason (R) : Electrons are entering 5f orbitals in actinoids which experience greater shielding from nuclear charge.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Which of the following statements are INCORRECT?

A. All the transition metals except scandium form MO oxides which are ionic.

B. The highest oxidation number corresponding to the group number in transition metal oxides is attained in $$\mathrm{Sc}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}$$ to $$\mathrm{Mn}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}$$.

C. Basic character increases from $$\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}$$ to $$\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4}$$ to $$\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{5}$$.

D. $$\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4}$$ dissolves in acids to give $$\mathrm{VO}_{4}^{3-}$$ salts.
