Magnetic moment (spin only) of [NiCl(4)]...

Magnetic moment (spin only) of `[NiCl_(4)]^(2-)`-

A

1.82 BM

B

5.46 BM

C

2.82 BM

D

1.41 BM

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`[CiCl_(4)]^(2-)` : In this complex, `Ni` is a `sp^(3)` - hybridised `d^(8)` system having two unpaired electrons.
`therefore mu= sqrt(n(n+2))=sqrt(2xx4)=2.82BM`
