    A transition element X has the configuration \[[Ar]{{d}^{4}}\] in its \[+3\] oxidation state. It?s atomic number is

    A) \[25\]                                   

    B) \[26\]

    C) \[22\]                                   

    D) \[19\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given,   \[X=[Ar]{{d}^{4}}\] The complete configuration of the ion,                 \[{{X}^{3+}}=1{{s}^{2}},\,\,2{{s}^{2}},\,\,2{{p}^{6}},\,\,3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}},\,\,3{{d}^{4}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[X=1{{s}^{2}},\,\,2{{s}^{2}},\,\,2{{p}^{6}},\,\,3{{s}^{2}},\,\,3{{p}^{6}},\,\,3{{d}^{5}},\,\,4{{s}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]The atomic number of the element is \[25\] and the element is\[Mn.\]
