Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
has 
electronic configuration. In the presence of strong field ligand, 
. Thus the splitting occurs as: 
; so the magnetic moment is zero.
According to the spectrochemical series, en is a stronger ligand than 
and therefore promotes pairing. This implies that the 
of en is more than the 
of 
.
