The magnetic nature of elements depends on the presence of unpaired electrons.
Identify the configuration of a transition element which shows the highest magnetic moment:
- A \(3 d^7\)
- B \(3 d^5\)
- C \(3 d^8\)
- D \(3 d^2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(3 d^5\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(3d^7\): Unpaired electrons = 3 \(3d^5\): Unpaired electrons = 5 \(3d^8\): Unpaired electrons = 2 \(3d^2\): Unpaired electrons = 2 Highest magnetic moment for \(3d^5\)

Molar conductivity \(\left(\Lambda_m\right)\) of a solution at a given concentration (c) is the conductance of volume, V of solution, containing one mole of electrolyte kept between the two electrodes with area of cross-section A and at a distance of unit length. It increases with the decrease in concentration and when the concentration approaches zero, the molar conductivity is called limiting molar conductivity \(\left(\Lambda_m^0\right)\). For a strong electrolyte, \(\Lambda_m\) increases linearly with dilution and is given by \(\Lambda_m=\Lambda_m^0-A c^{1 / 2}\). The value of the constant A for a given solvent depends on the type of electrolyte along with temperature. According to Kohlrausch law, the value of \(\left(\Lambda_m^0\right)\) for an electrolyte is A\(\Lambda_m^0=\nu_{+} \lambda_{+}^0+\nu_{-} \lambda_{-}^0\), where \(\nu_{+}\)and \(\nu_{-}\) are the number of cations and anions, respectively, per molecule of the electrolyte and \(\lambda_{+}^0\) and \(\lambda_{-}^0\) are limiting molar conductivities of cation and anion, respectively. Kohlrausch law
finds many applications, like determining the solubility of a sparingly soluble salt, determining the degree of dissociation\(\left(\Lambda_m / \Lambda_m^0\right)\), and the dissociation constant of a weak electrolyte.
If the equivalent conductivity of 1 M Phthalic acid is \(12.8 S cm ^2 eq ^{-1}\) and the limiting equivalent conductivities of the
hydrogen and Phthalate ions are 42 and \(288.42 S cm ^2 eq ^{-1}\), respectively, the degree of dissociation of Phthalic acid will be :CUET 2025 Medium
