    \[[Cr{{({{H}_{2}}O)}_{6}}]C{{l}_{3}}\] (atomic number of \[Cr=24\]) has a magnetic moment of 3.83 BM. The correct distribution of 3d-elections in the chromium present in the complex is

    A) \[3d_{xy}^{1},3d_{yz}^{1},3d_{zx}^{1}\]    

    B) \[3d_{xy}^{1},3d_{yz}^{1},3d_{{{z}^{2}}}^{1}\]

    C) \[3d_{({{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}})}^{1},3d_{{{z}^{2}}}^{1},3d_{zx}^{1}\]    

    D) \[3d_{xy}^{1},3d_{({{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}})}^{1},3d_{xz}^{1}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Magnetic moment indicates that there are three unpaired electrons present in chromium. These must be present in lower energy orbitals which are \[3{{d}_{xy}},3{{d}_{yz}}\] and \[3{{d}_{xz}}\].
