Transition metals and many of their comp...

Transition metals and many of their compounds show paramagnetic behaviour where there are unpaired electron or electrons. The magnetic moment arises from the spin and orbital motions in ions or molecule. Magnetic moment of n unpaired electrons is given as
`mu=sqrt(n(n+2))` Bohr magneton
Magnetic moment increases as the number of unpaired electrons increases.
Q. Increasing value of magnetic moment of
(I) `[Fe(CN)_6]^(4-)`
(II) `[Fe(CN)_6]^(3-)`,
(III) `[Cr(NH_3)_6]^(3+)`
(IV) `[Ni(H_2O)_4]^(2+)` is:

A

`IltIIltIIIltIV`

B

`IVltIIIltIIltI`

C

`IIltIIIltIltIV`

D

`IltIIltIVltIII`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

`{:("compound","unpaired"),(I,0),(II,1),(III,3),(IV,2):}`
Hence answer is (d) i.e., `IltIIltIVltIII`

There are three unpaired electrons in [Co(H_2O)_6]^(2+) and calculated value of magnetic moment on the basis of sqrt(n(n+2)) formula is 3.87 BM. which is lower than the expermental value of 4.40 BM. The reason for this difference is due to
