MCQ
Among the following, the compound that is both paramagnetic and coloured is
  • A
    $K_2Cr_2O_7$
  • B
    $(NH_4)_2[TiCl_6]$
  • $VOSO_4$
  • D
    $K_3[Cu(CN)_4]$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$VOSO_4$
c
In $K _2 Cr _2 O _7$, the oxidation state of $Cr$ is $+6$.

$Cr ^{-6}=[ Ar ] 3 d ^0$

In $\left( NH _4\right)_2\left[ TiCl _6\right]$, the oxidation state of $Ti$ is $+4$.

$Ti ^{+4}=[ Ar ] 3 d ^0$

In $VOSO _4$, the oxidation state of $V$ is $+4$.

$V ^{+4}=[ Ar ] 3 d ^1$

In $K _3\left[ Cu ( CN )_4\right]$, the oxidation state of $Cu$ is $+1$.

$Cu ^{+1}=[ Ar ] 3 d ^{10}$

In $VOSO _4, V ^{+4}$ configuration is $d ^1$, so it has one unpaired d-electron so it is paramagnetic and colored. All other compounds don't have any unpaired $d$ electrons, so they are diamagnetic in nature.
