Magnetization, magnetic susceptibility, and crystal structure are investigated on the ternary chromium arsenides CrM{prime}As (M{prime}=Ru,Rh,Pd) and ternary manganese phosphides and arsenides MnM{prime}P(M{prime}=Rh,Pd) and MnM{prime}As(M{prime}=Ru,Pd). MnRhP, MnRuAs, and MnPdAs are ferromagnets with a Curie temperature of {ital T}{sub {ital c}}=401, 496, and 210 K, respectively. CrRhAs is an antiferromagnet with a Neel temperature of {ital T}{sub {ital N}}=165 K. MnPdP and CrPdAs show spin-glass-like freezing. A magnetic order-order transition is observed for CrRuAs. Susceptibility {chi} versus temperature curves are well expressed by a formula {chi} =C{prime}/({ital T} {minus} {theta}{sup {prime}}{sub {ital P}}){sup {gamma}} for all present compounds. The values of {gamma} are about 3/2 for manganese compounds and CrPdAs, and about 1/2 for CrRuAs and CrRhAs.
