Vedclass · Answer

(A) Magnetic moment is calculated using the formula $\mu = \sqrt{n(n+2)}$ $B$.$M$.,where $n$ is the number of unpaired electrons.$1$. $	ext{Cr}^{2+}: [Ar]3d^4 \implies n=4$,$\mu = \sqrt{4(4+2)} = \sqrt{24} \approx 4.90$ $B$.$M$.$2$. $	ext{Ni}^{2+}: [Ar]3d^8 \implies n=2$,$\mu = \sqrt{2(2+2)} = \sqrt{8} \approx 2.83$ $B$.$M$.$3$. $	ext{Cu}^{2+}: [Ar]3d^9 \implies n=1$,$\mu = \sqrt{1(1+2)} = \sqrt{3} \approx 1.73$ $B$.$M$.$4$. $	ext{Co}^{2+}: [Ar]3d^7 \implies n=3$,$\mu = \sqrt{3(3+2)} = \sqrt{15} \approx 3.87$ $B$.$M$.Comparing the values,$	ext{Cr}^{2+}$ has the highest number of unpaired electrons $(n=4)$,and therefore,it has the highest magnetic moment.

$I. \ Zn^{2+}$	$(i) \ d^8 \ \text{configuration}$
$II. \ Cu^{2+}$	$(ii) \ \text{Colourless}$
$III. \ Ni^{2+}$	$(iii) \ \mu = 1.73 \ \text{BM}$
