NEET 2026 Chemistry Magnetic Properties MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

The calculated 'spin-only' magnetic moment Ti²⁺ (3d²) is:

A

5.92 BM

B

3.87 BM

C

2.84 BM

D

4.90 BM

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The spin-only magnetic moment is calculated using the formula μ = √n(n+2) B.M, where n is the number of unpaired electrons. For Ti²⁺, n = 2, so μ = √8 = 2.84 BM.
