Complete question:
Calculate the ‘Spin only’ magnetic moment in Bohr Magnetons of M⁺² (aq) ion (Z = 26).
Answer:
the ‘Spin only’ magnetic moment in Bohr Magnetons of M⁺² (aq) ion (Z = 26) is 3.96 BM.
Explanation:
Given,
The atomic number of M⁺² ion is (Z) = 26.
To find,
The magnetic moment of M⁺² ion (μ) in Bohr magnetons.
Concept,
The magnetic moment of an atom or an ion is given by
Where n = no. of unpaired electrons present in an atom or an ion.
Calculation,
The electronic configuration of an atom M is [Ar] 3d⁶ 4s².
So, the electronic configuration of the M⁺² ion is [Ar] 3d⁶.
As in the d orbital, there are five subshells and the electrons fill in the subshells according to Hund's rule.
i.e. the paring of the electron is done after each subshell is filled with a single electron. So as there are 5 subshells, 5 electrons first fill in every subshell each then the remaining 1 electron pair in any one of the subshells (for simplicity let it be 1st subshell).
Hence there are 4 unpaired electrons present in the d orbital of the M⁺² ion.
i.e. n = 4
From equation (1):
⇒ μ = √24 BM
⇒ μ = 3.96 BM.
Therefore, the ‘Spin only’ magnetic moment in Bohr Magnetons of M⁺² (aq) ion (Z = 26) is 3.96 BM.
