Single Choice

The value of the 'spin only' magnetic moment for one of the following configurations is $$2.84$$ BM. The correct one is?

A$$d^5$$ (in strong ligand field)
B$$d^3$$ (in weak as well as in strong fields)
C$$d^4$$ (in weak ligand fields)
D$$d^4$$ (in strong ligand fields)
Correct Answer

Solution

$$M.M =2.84\ B.M.=\sqrt{n(n+2)}$$ $$\Rightarrow$$ No. of unpaired electron, $$n=2.$$
