The $$\mathrm{E}^{\circ}$$ value for the $$\mathrm{Mn}^{3+} / \mathrm{Mn}^{2+}$$ couple is more positive than that of $$\mathrm{Cr}^{3+} / \mathrm{Cr}^{2+}$$ or $$\mathrm{Fe}^{3+} / \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}$$ due to change of
The pair of lanthanoid ions which are diamagnetic is
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 :
