Match each 3d-series metal ion in Column I with its correct characteristic in Column II. Column I: (P) Ni2+ (Q) Cr2+ (R) V2+ (S) Ti4+ Column II: (1) gives a blue aqueous solution (2) has half-filled t2g orbitals in an octahedral complex (3) is a diamagnetic ion (4) has spin-only magnetic moment mu = 2.84 B.M. Choose the correct matching code for P, Q, R, S.

  1. P-4, Q-2, R-1, S-3
  2. P-3, Q-1, R-2, S-4
  3. P-4, Q-1, R-2, S-3
  4. P-1, Q-2, R-4, S-3

Correct answer: P-4, Q-1, R-2, S-3

Solution

Ni2+ (d8, 2 unpaired) gives mu = 2.84 B.M.; Cr2+ in low-spin/Cu2+-like blue solutions is associated with the blue colour; V2+ (d3) has half-filled t2g; Ti4+ (d0) is diamagnetic.
