Which of the following electronic configurations would be associated with the highest magnetic moment?
Updated On: Nov 13, 2024
- \([Ar] 3d^7\)
- \([Ar] 3d^8\)
- \([Ar] 3d^2\)
- \([Ar] 3d^6\)

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The magnetic moment μ is given by:
μ=$\sqrt{n(n + 2)}$ BM
where n is the number of unpaired electrons. Among the options, [Ar] 3d6 has the highest number of unpaired electrons (4), leading to a maximum magnetic moment.
