A compound of vanadium has a magnetic moment of 1.73 BM. The electronic configuration of vanadium ion in the compound is:

A

`[Ar]3d^(2)`

B

`[Ar]3d^(1)4s^(0)`

C

`[Ar]3d^(3)`

D

`[Ar]3d^(0)4s^(1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Magnetic moment`=sqrt(n(n+1))BM`
`1.73=sqrt(n(n+2))`
`sqrt(3)=sqrt(n(n+2))`
n=1 (Number of unparied electrons)
`V_(22)to3d^(2)4s^(2)`
`V^(3+)to3d^(1)4s^(0)` (has one unpaired electron)
