JEE Advance - Chemistry (2021 - Paper 1 Online - No. 4)

The calculated spin only magnetic moments of [ Cr(NH3)6]3+ and [CuF6]3$$-$$ in BM, respectively, are

(Atomic numbers of Cr and Cu are 24 and 29, respectively)
3.87 and 2.84
4.90 and 1.73
3.87 and 1.73
4.90 and 2.84

Explanation

$${[Cr{(N{H_3})_6}]^{3 + }}$$

Atomic number of Cr = 24

Electron configuration of Cr = 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d5 4s1

Electronic configuration of Cr3+ = 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d3 4s0

NH3 is a weak field ligand. The splitting of d-orbital occur.

Number of unpaired electrons, n = 3

Magnetic moment (spin only), $${\mu _s} = \sqrt {n(n + 2)} BM$$

$$ = \sqrt {3(3 + 2)} = \sqrt {3 \times 5} = \sqrt {15} = 3.87BM$$

$${[Cu{F_6}]^{3 - }}$$ Atomic number of Cu = 29

Electronic configuration of Cu = 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s1

Electronic configuration of Cu2+ = 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d8 4s0

F$$-$$ is a weak field ligand, so splitting of d-orbitals occur as follows:

Number of unpaired electrons, n = 2

Spin only magnetic moment, $${\mu _s} = \sqrt {n(n + 2)} BM$$

$$ = \sqrt {2(2 + 2)} = \sqrt {2 \times 4} = 2\sqrt 2 = 2.84BM$$
