Question 14
The pair of ions having same electronic configuration is.............
(a) Cr3+,Fe3+ (b) Fe3+,Mn2++ (c) Fe3+,Co3+ (d) SC3+,Cr3+
24Cr=[Ar]3d5,4s1 24Cr3+=[Ar]3d3
26Fe=[Ar]3d6,4s2 26Fe3+=[Ar]3d5
25Mn=[Ar]3d5,4s2 26Mn2+=[Ar]3d5
27Co=[Ar]3d7,4s2 27CO3+=[Ar]3d6
21So=[Ar]3d1,4s2 21Sc3+=[Ar]
Thus, Fe3+ and Mn2+ have the same electronic confifuratoin.
