The magnetic moment (in BM) of `Zn^(2+)` ion according to spin-only formula is

A

Zero

B

`1,73`

C

`2.84`

D

`3.87`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Magnetic moment, `mu=sqrt(n(n+2))`BN where n = number of unpaired electrons.
Valence shell electronic configuration of `Zn^(2+)`

Due to the absence of unpaired electron, magnetic moment of `Zn^(2+)` is zero.
