MCQ
The first transition series metal 'M' has the highest enthalpy of atomisation in its series. One of its aquated ion $\left(\mathrm{M}^{\text {n+}}\right)$ exists in green colour. The nature of the oxide formed by the above $\mathrm{M}^{\mathrm{n}-}$ ion is :
  • A
    neutral
  • B
    acidic
  • C
    basic
  • D
    amphoteric

Answer

C. basic
→ In 3d series Vanadium has highest enthalpy of atomization and colour of $\mathrm{V}^{+3}$ is green.
→ Oxide form by $\mathrm{V}^{+3}$ is $\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}$ (Basic oxide)
