C.Fe3+
D.Cu2+

Solution

The paramagnerticcharacter is exhibitedby species having unpaired electrons. Furtherparamagnetic character is directly proportional to number of unpaired electrons.
      Configuration       Unpaired electron
Cu+[Ne]3s2p6d10             0
CU2+[Ne]3s2p6d10          1
Fe2+[Ne]3s2p6d6             4
Fe3+[Ne]3s2p6d5             5
