                    Which one is not paramagnetic among the following? 

    A)                                 [Atomic number: Be = 4, Ne = 10, As = 33, CI = 17]                                                                            \[C{{l}^{-}}\]      

    B)                                            Be          

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

    D)                                            \[A{{s}^{+}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Paramagnetic character is based upon presence of unpaired electron                 \[_{17}C{{l}^{-}}=1{{s}^{2}},\,2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},\,3{{s}^{2}}3p_{x}^{2}3p_{y}^{2}3p_{z}^{2}\]                 Unpaired electron about Diamagnetic                 \[_{4}Be=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{1}}\,2p_{x}^{1}\]                 \[1{{s}^{2}}\,2{{s}^{2}}\]                 \[_{10}N{{e}^{2+}}=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2p_{x}^{2}2p_{y}^{1}2p_{z}^{1}\] \[_{33}A{{s}^{+}}=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{10}},4{{s}^{2}}\,4p_{x}^{1}4p_{y}^{1}\,4p_{z}^{0}\]                 All have unpaired electrons. So, these are paramagnetic in nature.
