Time management is very much important in IIT JAM. The eduncle test series for IIT JAM Mathematical Statistics helped me a lot in this portion. I am very thankful to the test series I bought from eduncle.

in group 6, Mo(VI) and W(VI) are found to be more stable than Cr(VI) because. This easier availability of d and s electron occurs as higher energy d and s orbital like 4d,5d,3s and 4s allow the orbital to loss electron easily and form stable higher oxidation state
3d electrons are better attracted to the nucleus. Indeed, the 3d orbitals do not contain radial nodes and their electrons are thus closer to the nucleus. The radial nodes in 4d and higher d-orbitals ‘add distance’ between the nucleus and the corresponding d-electrons (do not copy that wording: it is bad). It is this proximity to the nucleus and the consequential lesser extension of the orbitals into space that draws electrons into them, destabilising the higher oxidation states and stabilising slightly lower ones.
