Correct Answer - Option 1 : 5.92

Concept:

The spin only magnetic moment (μ) in (BM),

\({\rm{\mu }} = \sqrt {{\rm{n}}\left( {{\rm{n}} + 2} \right)}\) 

Where, n = Number of unpaired electrons

The highest value of n in transition metal complex is 5 in its d5 configuration.

n = Maximum number of unpaired electrons = 5

B.M is Bohr Magneton

\({\rm{\mu }} = \sqrt {5\left( {5 + 2} \right)} {\rm{BM}}\) 

= 5.916 BM

The magnetic moment (μ) is the magnetic strength and orientation of a magnet or other object that produces a magnetic field. Examples of objects that have magnetic moments include: loops of electric current (such as electromagnets) permanent magnets, elementary particles (such as electrons), various molecules, and many astronomical objects.
