Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2025

Match List - I with List - II.

List - I
(Transition metal ion)
List - II
(Spin only magnetic moment (B.M.))
(A) $\mathrm{Ti}^{3+}$ (I) 3.87
(B) $\mathrm{V}^{2+}$ (II) 0.00
(C) $\mathrm{Ni}^{2+}$ (III) 1.73
(D) $\mathrm{Sc}^{3+}$ (IV) 2.84

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A $\mathrm{(A) -(III}),(\mathrm{B})-(\mathrm{I}),(\mathrm{C})-(\mathrm{IV}),(\mathrm{D})-(\mathrm{II})$ Correct answer
  2. B $(\mathrm{A})-(\mathrm{II}),(\mathrm{B})-(\mathrm{IV}),(\mathrm{C})-(\mathrm{I}),(\mathrm{D})-(\mathrm{III})$
  3. C $(\mathrm{A})-(\mathrm{III}),(\mathrm{B})-(\mathrm{I}),(\mathrm{C})-(\mathrm{II}),(\mathrm{D})-(\mathrm{IV})$
  4. D $(\mathrm{A})-(\mathrm{IV}),(\mathrm{B})-(\mathrm{II}),(\mathrm{C})-(\mathrm{III}),(\mathrm{D})-(\mathrm{I})$

Solution

<p>$$\begin{array}{ll} \mathrm{Sc}^{+3}=3 \mathrm{~d}^{\circ} & \therefore \mu_{\text {spin }}=0 \\ \mathrm{~V}^{+2}=3 \mathrm{~d}^3 & \therefore \mu_{\text {spin }}=3.87 \text { B.M. } \\ \mathrm{Ni}^{+2}=3 \mathrm{~d}^8 & \therefore \mu_{\text {spin }}=2.84 \text { B.M. } \end{array}$$</p> <p>$\mathrm{Ti}^{+3}=3 \mathrm{~d}^1 \quad \therefore \mu_{\mathrm{spin}}=1.73 \mathrm{~B} . \mathrm{M}$</p>
