The value of 'spin only' magnetic moment...

The value of 'spin only' magnetic moment for one of the following configurations is 2.84 BM. The correct one is :

A

`d^(4)` (in strong liquid field)

B

`d^(2)` (in weak ligand field)

C

`d^(3)` (in weak as well as in strong fields)

D

`d^(5)` (in strong ligand field).

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`mu=2.84BM`
This is possible only if n = 2 in the formula :
`mu=sqrt(n(n+2))=sqrt(2(2+2))=2.84`
Two unpaired electrons are possible in strong field octahedral `d^(4)` system : `t_(2g)^(3)e_(g)^(1)`
