Question

Unlike Cr3+ Mn2+, Fe3+ &
the subsequent other M2+ ions of the 3d series of
elements, the 4d & the 5d series metals generally do not form
stable cationic species Give reason in brief ans quick

Pankaj Singh · Accepted Answer

It is not so 4d and 5d elements also form stable cationic
species but they have tendency to show variable oxidation states
This is because so weak shielding effect of f orbitals
