  • question_answer
    Compound that is both paramagnetic and coloured is

    A) \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\]     

    B) \[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}[TiC{{l}_{6}}]\]

    C) \[VOS{{O}_{4}}\]        

    D) \[{{K}_{3}}[Cu{{(CN)}_{4}}]\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c]
    (1) In \[C{{r}_{2}}O_{7}^{2-}\], the valence shell electron configuration of Cr (VI) is \[3{{d}^{0}}\]. Thus \[Cr(VI)\] is diamagnetic but coloured due to the charge transfer spectrum.
    (2) In\[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}\]\[[TiC{{l}_{6}}]\], the valence shell electron configuration of Ti (IV) is\[3{{d}^{0}}\], thus, V (IV) is diamagnetic and colourless.
    (3) In \[VOS{{O}_{4}}\], the valence shell electon configuration of V (IV) is \[3{{d}^{0}}\], thus V (IV) is paramagnetic and blue coloured due to d-d transition.
    (4) In \[{{K}_{3}}[Cu{{(CN)}_{4}}]\], the valence shell electon configuration of Cu (I) is \[3{{d}^{0}}\], thus Cu (I) is diamagnetic and colourless.
