Chemistry Question on Quantum Mechanical Model of Atom

Magnetic moment of a divalent ion in aqueous solution of an element with atomic number 25 is:

A

2.84 BM

B

3.87 BM

C

4.90 BM

D

5.92 BM

Answer

5.92 BM

Explanation

Solution

The atomic number 2525 corresponds to the element Manganese (Mn)(Mn).
The magnetic moment of a divalent ion in aqueous solution of Mn with atomic number 2525 is typically around 5.925.92 Bohr magnetons (BM).(BM).

Therefore, the correct option is (D): 5.925.92 BM.
