A transition element with atomic number ...

A transition element with atomic number 24 will have its magnetic moment :

A

5.92 B.M

B

6.93 B.M

C

It will be diamagnetic

D

It will be more than 8 B.M.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Magnetic moment, `mu = sqrt(n(n+2))`
Configuration : [Ar] `4s^(1)3d^(5)`
No. of unpaired electrons = 6
`therefore mu = sqrt(6(6+2)) = sqrt(48) = 6.93` B.M.
