Q: What is the correct answer for CUET UG Chemistry (d and f block elements) Q26?

The correct answer is c. A. In compounds, lanthanum exhibits only one oxidation state, +3. (A-II)B. Like most rare-earth elements, praseodymium most readily forms the +3 oxidation state, which is the only stable state in aqueous solution, although the +4 oxidation state is known in some solid compounds. (B-I)C. We know that, +3 oxidation is common in all series. Stable of +3 O.S. depends upon high hydration energy, high l

A. In compounds, lanthanum exhibits only one oxidation state, +3. (A-II)B. Like most rare-earth elements, praseodymium most readily forms the +3 oxidation state, which is the only stable state in aqueous solution, although the +4 oxidation state is known in some solid compounds. (B-I)C. We know that, +3 oxidation is common in all series. Stable of +3 O.S. depends upon high hydration energy, high lactic energy and high I.P. Nd2+- has configuration 4f4. Nd4+- has configuration 4f2. Hence +2, +4 oxidation states are unstable in Nd in aqueous solution. (C-III)D. Samarium is a chemical element with symbol Sm and atomic number 62. It is a moderately hard silvery metal that slowly oxidizes in air. Being a typical member of the lanthanide series, samarium usually has the oxidation state +3. (D-IV)So matches are: A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV. This matches option (c).
