Amongst the following ions which one has the highest magnetic moment value?(i) [Cr(H2O)6]3+(ii) [Fe(H2O)6]2+(iii) [Zn(H2O)6]2+

Answer»

(i) n = 3

µ = \(\sqrt{n(n+2)}\)

= \(\sqrt{3(3+2)}\)

= \(\sqrt{15}\)

≈ 4BM

(ii) n = 4

µ = \(\sqrt{4(4+2)}\)

= \(\sqrt{24}\)

≈ 5 BM

(iii) n = 0
μ = 0
Hence [FeCH2O)6]2+ has the highest magnetic moment value.
