What is the correct order of the following elements with respect to their density?
Options
- AZn < Cu < Co < Fe < Cr
- BCr < Zn < Co < Cu < Fe
- CZn < Cr < Fe < Co < Cu
- DCr < Fe < Co < Cu < Zn
Correct answer
C. Zn < Cr < Fe < Co < Cu
Step-by-step solution
Among the transition series, the trend in density will be reverse of atomic radii, i.e. density increase remains almost the same and then decreases along the period.
