    Which of the following lanthanoid ions is diamagnetic? (At nos. Ce = 58, Sm = 62, Eu = 63, Yb = 70)

    A) \[S{{m}^{2+}}\]                    

    B) \[E{{u}^{2+}}\]

    C) \[Y{{b}^{2+}}\]                     

    D) \[C{{e}^{2+}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] \[S{{m}^{2+}}\left( Z=62 \right)\] \[\left[ Xe \right]4{{f}^{6}}6{{s}^{2}}-6\] unpaired \[{{e}^{-}}E{{u}^{2+}}\left( Z=63 \right)\] \[\left[ Xe \right]4{{f}^{7}}6{{s}^{2}}-7\] unpaired \[{{e}^{-}}Y{{b}^{2+}}(Z=70)\] \[\left[ Xe \right]4{{f}^{14}}6{{s}^{2}}-0\] unpaired \[{{e}^{-}}C{{e}^{2+}}(Z=58)\] \[\left[ Xe \right]4{{f}^{1}}5{{d}^{1}}6{{s}^{2}}-2\] unpaired \[{{e}^{-}}\] Only \[Y{{b}^{2+}}\]is diamagnetic.
