Correct answer: A
- Find oxidation states and d-electron counts
-
For :
- is a neutral ligand.
- So oxidation state of Cr is .
- Cr:
- loses 3 electrons
-
For :
- Each has charge .
- Let oxidation state of Cu be :
- Cu:
- loses 3 electrons
- Determine number of unpaired electrons
-
:
- Octahedral complex with configuration.
- Electron arrangement:
- Number of unpaired electrons,
-
:
- Octahedral complex with configuration.
- In octahedral field:
- Number of unpaired electrons,
- Use spin-only magnetic moment formula
-
For :
-
For :
- Match with options
Thus the calculated spin-only magnetic moments are:
So the correct option is A.
