Transition metals and many of their compounds show paramagnetic behaviour where there are unpaired electron or electrons. The magnetic moment arises from the spin and orbital motions in ions or molecule. Magnetic moment of unpaired electrons is given as
Bohr Magneton
Magnetic moment increases as the number of unpaired electrons increases.
Magnetic moment of is zero but that of is It is because of:
(a)is a strong ligand making two unpaired electrons in to pair up, while in two electrons remain unpaired as is a weak ligand
(b)Different oxidation state of in two complexes
(c)Both (A) and (B)
(d)None of the above
