Give reasons :
(a) value for couple is much more positive than that for .
(b) Iron has higher enthalpy of atomization than that of copper.
(c) is colourless in aqueous solution whereas is coloured.
(a) value for couple is much more positive than that for .
(b) Iron has higher enthalpy of atomization than that of copper.
(c) is colourless in aqueous solution whereas is coloured.
Solution:
(a) Because is more stable than due to half-filled configuration whereas becomes unstable after loosing an electron from half filled orbital.
(b) Iron has higher enthalpy of atomization then that of copper because of higher number of unpaired electrons present in iron. possesses and unpaired electron while possesses only 1 unpaired electron.
Number of unpaired electrons Inter atomic interaction metallic bonding a entnalpy of atomization.
(c) is colourless in aqueous solution due to absence of unpaired electron and no transition takes place. While is coloured due to the presence of one unpaired electron and transition takes place which absorbs light in visible region.
