Correct answer: A
-
Find oxidation state of Cr in chromyl chloride
Chromyl chloride is .
Let oxidation state of Cr be .
We know:
- Oxygen each, so
- Chlorine each, so
Therefore,
So chromium is in +6 oxidation state in .
-
Find number of d-electrons on Cr in
Atomic number of Cr
Ground-state electronic configuration of Cr:
For , remove 6 electrons:
- first 1 from
- next 5 from
Hence,
So number of -electrons .
-
Check each option
A:
Mn:
means removal of 7 electrons: Number of -electrons
This matches.
B:
Ti:
: remove 2 from and 1 from Number of -electrons
Does not match.
C:
Fe:
: remove 2 from and 1 from Number of -electrons
Does not match.
D:
V:
: remove 2 from and 2 from Number of -electrons
Does not match.
-
Conclusion
The number of -electrons in chromium of chromyl chloride is same as in:
So the correct option is A.
