Calculate the magnetic moment of a dival...

Calculate the magnetic moment of a divalent ion in aqueous solution if its atomic number is 25.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Z=25` is for Mn . Its E.C.` = [Ar]^(18) 3d^(5) 4s^(2)` . E.C. of its divalent ion `= [ Ar]^(18) 3d^(5) `. Thus , it has 5 unpaired electrons.
`:. ` Magnetic moment `(mu) = sqrt(n(n+2)) ` B.M. `(or mu_(B)) = sqrt(5(5+2)) = 5.92 mu_(B)`
