1) (c) Electronic Arrangement of d5 configuration is the ground state.


Reason:

1) It follows Hunds Rule of maximum Multiplicity.
This configuration gives maximum stability due to symmetrical axis as it is half -filled orbital.


2) Maximum no. of Exchange pairs are available,hence More Exchange energy or Increase in Stability.
--------
2:
Exchange Energy :
It is the decrease in energy when electrons with parallel spin exchange their positions in the degenerate orbitals of a subshell.

More no. of unpaired electrons with parallel spin,
=> More no. of exchange pairs.
=> More Exchange Energy or decrease in systems energy or increase in stability.

Option a) has no exchange pair
b) has 3 exchange pairs (3C2)
c) has 10 exchange pairs. or more no. of unpaired parallel electrons. (5C2)

Hence, (c) arrangement has maximum exchange energy.
