Why MnII show...

Question

Why Mn(II) show maximum paramagnetic as compared to bivalent ions of $1^{s t}$ transition series?

Open in App

Solution

The Mn(II) ion has 5 unpaired electrons in 3d subshell which is a maximum value for a transition metal ion and the paramagnetic property is directly related to unpaired electrons and hence Mn(II) shows maximum paramagnetic property.
