Question

Why divalent metal ions have maximum paramagnetic character among the first transition elements?

Answer 1

As paramagnetic character depends upon the no.of unpaired electrons.you can refer to the elements Mn(ll) which has 5 unpaired electrons in its d orbital..having the highest no.of unpaired electrons..

Answer 2

The divalent metal ion which has maximum paramagnetic charcter among the first transition metal is Manganese. It has 5 electrons unpaired, after losing 2 of its electrons
