- Identify, based on the position in the periodic table, the actinide elements among those in the following list: Co, Cm, Cd, Ce, Cf.arrow_forwardWhich Period 4 transition-metal ions are isoelectronic with (a) Zn2+ (b) Mn2+ (c) Cr3+ (d) Fe3+arrow_forwardOne compound found in alkaline batteries is NiOOH, a compound containing Ni3+ ions. When the battery is discharged, the Ni3+ is reduced to Ni2+ ions [as in Ni(OH)2]. Using orbital box diagrams and the noble gas notation, show electron configurations of these ions. Are either of these ions paramagnetic?arrow_forward
