The 
electron configurations of 
and 
are 
and 
respectively Which one of the following aqua complexes will exhibit the minimum paramagnetic behaviour?
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
3 d
4 unpaired electrons
5 unpaired electrons
4 unpaired electrons
2 unpaired electrons
Greater the number of unpaired electrons, higher is the paramagnetism. Hence, 
will exhibit the minimum paramagnetic behaviour.
