A) TiO > FeO > VO > CrO
B) TiO > VO > CrO > FeO
C) VO > CrO > TiO > FeO
D) CrO > VO > FeO > TiO
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
The order of basic character of the transition metal monoxide is \[TiO>VO>CrO>FeO\]because basic character of oxides decrease with increase in atomic number. Hence, oxides of transitional metals in low oxidation state i.e., +2 and +3 are generally basic except \[C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]. (Atomic number Ti = 22, V = 23, Cr = 24, Fe = 26)You need to login to perform this action.
