Among the following oxides of 3d elements, the number of mixed oxides are . Ti2O3, V2O4, Cr2O3, Mn3O4, Fe3O4, Fe2O3, Co3O4

Answer

3

Solution

A mixed oxide contains the metal in two oxidation states (MO·M₂O₃ type).

Mn3O4 = MnO Mn2O3 (Mn +2, +3) ⇒ mixed

Fe3O4 = FeO Fe2O3 (Fe +2, +3) ⇒ mixed

Co3O4 = CoO Co2O3 (Co +2, +3) ⇒ mixed

Ti2O3 (+3), V2O4 (+4), Cr2O3 (+3), Fe2O3 (+3) ⇒ single oxidation state

Number of mixed oxides = 3
