- DB and C only
Correct answer
B. A and C only
Step-by-step solution
All the metals except scandium form MO oxides, which are ionic. Mn 2 O 7 is a covalent green oil. In vanadium there is gradual change from the basic V 2 O 3 to less basic V 2 O 4 and to amphoteric V 2 O 5 . V 2 O 4 dissolves in acids to give VO 2 + salts. Similarly, V 2 O 5 reacts with alkalies as well as acids to give VO 4 3 - and VO 4 + respectively. The well characterised CrO is basic but Cr 2 O 3 is amphoteric. (A) Mn 2 O 7 is green oil at room temperature. (B) V 2 O 4 dissolve in acids to give V O 2 + salts. (
