The highest magnetic moment is shown by the transition metal ion with the configuration
Options
- A3 d²
- B3 d⁵
- C3 d⁷
- D3 d⁹
Correct answer
B. 3 d⁵
Step-by-step solution
Magnetic moment of the element / ion is highest for configuration 3 d⁵ , because number of unpaired electron is maximum i.e. five.
