Identify correct statements from below:
A. The chromate ion is square planar.
B. Dichromates are generally prepared from chromates.
C. The green manganate ion is diamagnetic.
D. Dark green coloured disproportionates in a neutral or acidic medium to give permanganate.
E. With increasing oxidation number of transition metal, ionic character of the oxides decreases.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below: [2024]
(4)
(A) The chromate ion is tetrahedral in shape.
(B) Dichromates are prepared from chromates.
(C) In manganate ion, Mn is in +6 oxidation state, hence has one unpaired electron and is paramagnetic.
(D) The dark green disproportionates in a neutral or acidic solution to give permanganate.
(E) With increase in oxidation number of central metal atom, its polarising power increases and covalent character increase and therefore, ionic character decreases.
