Hydrogen and its compoundHard

Question

Amongst the following, the lowest degree of paramagnetism per kole of the compound at 298 K will be shown by :

Options

A.MnSO4.4H2O
B.CuSO4.5H2O
C.FeSO4.4H2O
D.NiSO4.6H2O

Solution

Mn2+ : [Ar]3d5, 4s0           n = 5
Cu2+ : [Ar]3d9, 4s0           n = 1
Fe2+ : [Ar]3d6, 4s0           n = 4
Ni2+ : [Ar]3d8, 4s0           n = 2
∵ Cu2+ has least number of unpaired electrons so it show minimum paramagnetic character.
