Explain giving reason.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
As metal ions generally contain one or more unpaired electrons in them & hence their complexes are generally paramagnetic.
Because of having larger number of unpaired electrons in their atoms, they have stronger interatomic interaction and hence stronger bonding between the atoms.
May be attributed to the presence of unpaired electrons (d-d transition in most of the compounds)
