Solution

The correct option is B 4s(s+1)+l(l+1)
For 2nd row and 3rd row transition metal ions the magnetic moment in Bohr magnetons is calculated by the formula 4s(s+1)+l(l+1).
It has contributions from spin angular momentum and orbital angular momentum.
Orbital motion of the electron generates orbital magnetic moment and spin motion of the electron generates spin magnetic moment.
