  • SO3

  • Mg

  • Al2O3

The point of dissimilarity between lanthanides and actinides is

  • three outermost shells are partially filled

  • they show oxidation state of + 3 (common)

  • they are called inner transition elements

  • they are radioactive in nature

428.

Which of the following ions is colourless in solution?

  • V3+

  • Cr3+

  • Co2+

  • Sc3+


D.

Sc3+

(i) V (23) = [Ar]3d3, 4s2

    V3+ = [Ar]3d2, 4s0 (two unpaired electrons)

(ii) Cr(24) = [Ar] 3d5, 4s1

    Cr3+ = [Ar] 3d3, 4s0 (three unpaired electrons)

(iii) Co(27) = [Ar] 3d7, 4s2

     Co2+ [Ar] 3d7, 4s0 (three unpaired electrons)

(iv) Sc(21) =[Ar] 3d7, 4s2

     Sc3+ = [Ar]3d0, 4s0 (no unpaired electrons)

Thus, in Sc3+ no unpaired d-electron is present. Hence, no d-d transition is possible and it is colourless ion.
