- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
-
We need the compound that is both metallic and ferromagnetic.
So we check the given oxides:
-
Recall important properties of these oxides:
- : This is a well-known metallic oxide and it is ferromagnetic. It has been used in magnetic recording materials.
- : Shows a metal-insulator transition, but at ordinary conditions it is not the standard ferromagnetic metallic oxide asked here.
- : Commonly an oxide with insulating/semiconducting character; not ferromagnetic metallic.
- : A non-metallic oxide, widely known as a semiconductor/insulator; not ferromagnetic.
-
Option-wise evaluation:
- A: metallic and ferromagnetic ✅
- B: not the required ferromagnetic metallic compound ❌
- C: not metallic and ferromagnetic ❌
- D: not metallic and ferromagnetic ❌
-
Final answer:
The compound which is metallic and ferromagnetic is: Hence, Option A is correct.
