The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the spin-only magnetic moment of coordination compounds, we will analyze the given configurations step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Magnetic Moment Formula**: The spin-only magnetic moment (μ) is calculated using the formula: \[ μ = \sqrt{n(n + 2)} \text{ Bohr Magneton (B.M.)} \] where \( n \) is the number of unpaired electrons. 2. **Analyzing the Configurations**: We have four configurations to analyze: - **Option 1**: \( d^4 \) strong field - **Option 2**: \( d^4 \) weak field - **Option 3**: \( d^3 \) (both strong and weak field) - **Option 4**: \( d^5 \) strong field 3. **Calculating for Each Configuration**: - **Option 1: \( d^4 \) Strong Field**: - In a strong field, electrons pair up. The configuration is \( t_{2g}^4 e_g^0 \). - Number of unpaired electrons \( n = 2 \). - Magnetic moment: \[ μ = \sqrt{2(2 + 2)} = \sqrt{8} = 2.84 \text{ B.M.} \] - **Option 2: \( d^4 \) Weak Field**: - In a weak field, electrons do not pair. The configuration is \( t_{2g}^3 e_g^1 \). - Number of unpaired electrons \( n = 4 \). - Magnetic moment: \[ μ = \sqrt{4(4 + 2)} = \sqrt{24} \approx 4.89 \text{ B.M.} \] - **Option 3: \( d^3 \) (Strong Field)**: - In a strong field, the configuration is \( t_{2g}^3 e_g^0 \). - Number of unpaired electrons \( n = 3 \). - Magnetic moment: \[ μ = \sqrt{3(3 + 2)} = \sqrt{15} \approx 3.87 \text{ B.M.} \] - **Option 4: \( d^5 \) Strong Field**: - In a strong field, the configuration is \( t_{2g}^5 e_g^0 \). - Number of unpaired electrons \( n = 5 \). - Magnetic moment: \[ μ = \sqrt{5(5 + 2)} = \sqrt{35} \approx 5.92 \text{ B.M.} \] 4. **Conclusion**: The only configuration that gives a magnetic moment of \( 2.84 \text{ B.M.} \) is **Option 1: \( d^4 \) Strong Field**. ### Final Answer: The correct configuration is **Option 1: \( d^4 \) Strong Field**.

To solve the problem regarding the spin-only magnetic moment of coordination compounds, we will analyze the given configurations step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Magnetic Moment Formula**: The spin-only magnetic moment (μ) is calculated using the formula: \[ μ = \sqrt{n(n + 2)} \text{ Bohr Magneton (B.M.)} ...
