Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Magnetic moment, p. is related with number of unpaired electrons as \[\mu =\sqrt{n(n+2)}BM\] \[{{(1.73)}^{2}}=n(n+2)\] On solving n = 1 Thus, the complex/compound having one unpaired electron exhibit a magnetic moment of 1.73 BM. In \[\ln \,{{[Cu{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{4}}]}^{2+}}\] \[C{{u}^{2+}}=[Ar]3{{d}^{9}}\] (Although in the presence of strong field ligand \[N{{H}_{3}}\], the unpaired electron gets excited to higher energy level but it still remains unpaired). ln \[{{[Nl{{(CN)}_{4}}]}^{2-}}\] \[N{{i}^{2+}}=[Ar]\,3{{d}^{8}}\] But \[C{{N}^{-}}\] being strong field ligand pair up the unpaired electrons and hence in this complex, number of unpaired electrons = 0. In \[[TiC{{l}_{4}}]\] \[T{{i}^{4+}}=[Ar]\] No unpaired electron. ln \[{{[CoC{{l}_{6}}]}^{4-}}\]\[C{{o}^{2+}}=[Ar]3{{d}^{7}}\] It contains three unpaired electrons. Thus, \[{{[Co{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{4}}]}^{2+}}\]is the complex that exhibits a magnetic moment 1.73 BM.You need to login to perform this action.
