Identify the incorrect statement.

1. The transition metals and their compounds are known for their catalytic activity due to their ability to adopt multiple oxidation states and to form complexes. 
2. Interstitial compounds are those that are formed when small atoms like H, C or N are trapped inside the crystal lattices of metals.
3. The oxidation states of chromium in  CrO42– and Cr2O72– are not the same.
4. Cr2+(d4)  is a stronger reducing agent than  Fe2+(d6)  in water.
