Spin-only' formula to calculate magnetic moment is expressed as

A

`mu=n(n+2)`

B

`mu-sqrt(n+2)/(n)`

C

`mu=sqrt(n(n+2))`

D

`mu=(n+2)/sqrt(n)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The magnetic moment is determined by the number of unpaired electrons and is calculated by using the 'spin-only formula, i.e., `mu=sqrt(n(n+2))`BM
