Q. The highest magnetic moment is shown by the transition metal ion with the configuration

KCETKCET 2006The d-and f-Block Elements

Solution:

Magnetic moment =$ \sqrt {n(n+2)} BM$

where n is the number of unpaired electrons. Maximum the value of unpaired electron, greater the value of magnetic moment. So,$3d^5$ has highest value of magnetic moment.
