Question
The value of the ‘spin only’ magnetic moment for one of the following configurations is 2.84 BM. The correct one is
-
d4 (in strong ligand filed)
-
d4 (in weak ligand field)
-
d3 (in weak as well as in strong fields)
-
d5 (in strong ligand field)
Solution
A.
d4 (in strong ligand filed)

d4 in strong field, so unpaired electrons = 2
