The Crystal Field Stabilization Energy (CFSE) and magnetic moment (spin-only) of an octahedral aqua complex of a metal ionMZ+are-0.8Δ0and3.87BM, respectively. IdentifyMZ+:

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

CFSE for octahedral complex =-0.4nt2 g+0.6negΔ0+n(P)

 As μ=3.87BM so number unpaired electron =3.
