Answer 2

Answer:

• Transition metals show paramagnetic behaviour.
• Paramagnetism arises due to the presence of unpaired electrons with each electron having a magnetic moment associated with its spin angular momentum and orbital angular momentum.
• However, in the first transition series, the orbital angular momentum is quenched.
• Therefore, the resulting paramagnetism is only because of the unpaired electron.
