JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2024 - 4th April Evening Shift - No. 30)
A first row transition metal with highest enthalpy of atomisation, upon reaction with oxygen at high temperature forms oxides of formula $$\mathrm{M}_2 \mathrm{O}_{\mathrm{n}}$$ (where $$\mathrm{n}=3,4,5$$). The 'spin-only' magnetic moment value of the amphoteric oxide from the above oxides is _________ $$\mathrm{BM}$$ (near integer)
(Given atomic number: $$\mathrm{Sc}: 21, \mathrm{Ti}: 22, \mathrm{~V}: 23, \mathrm{Cr}: 24, \mathrm{Mn}: 25, \mathrm{Fe}: 26, \mathrm{Co}: 27, \mathrm{Ni}: 28, \mathrm{Cu}: 29, \mathrm{Zn}: 30$$)
Answer
0
Explanation
Vanadium has highest enthalpy of atomization among first row transition elements.
$$\mathrm{V}_2 \mathrm{O}_5$$ is amphoteric
In $$\mathrm{V}^{5+}$$ there are no unpaired electrons.
Thus, $$\mu=0$$
