Mercurous ion exists as $Hg^+$

Vedclass · Answer

For $Hg^+$, the electron configuration should be $5 d^{10}6 s^1$ with a spin free electron which would make the mercurous compound paramagnetic. However, mercurous compounds are diamagnetic which indicates the absence of any spin free electron [loss of two s electrons not one, to a configuration of dio (noble gas).
