Calculate the 'spin-only' magnetic moment of M^(2+)(aq) ion (Z = 27).

Answer»

Solution :ELECTRONIC configuration of M with Z = 27 is `[Ar]3D^(7)4s^(2)`.
Thus, Electronic configuration of `M^(2+)` will be `[Ar]3d^(7)`.
This can be represented as

Thus, it has three unpaired electrons.
`:.` Spin-only magnetic MOMENT `(mu)=SQRT(n(n+2))BM=sqrt(3(3+2))=sqrt(15)BM=3.87" BM"`
