Question

How to calculate number of unpaired electrons from magnetic moment?

Answer 1

 MAGNETIC MOMMENTUM=

ROOTN[N+2]                    N = NO OF UNAPAIRED ELCTRONS   FOR EX= MANGNESE  =25  MN+2  : d5  ROOT 5[5+2]

Answer 2

$\mathbb{ \ \ ANSWER \: \: }$

Before trying to understand how to find out the number of unpaired electrons, we must first be aware of maximum shell capacity of each orbital. s‑2 p‑6 d‑10 f‑14 g‑18 and so it goes., let us try to find the number of unpaired electrons in Co³+ We know that the electronic configuration of the last two subshells is 4s⁰ 3d⁶.
