Current Question (ID: 21553)

Question:
$\text{What is the difference in the spin-only magnetic moment (in B.M.)}$ $\text{between manganese (Mn) in } \text{KMnO}_4 \text{ and manganese species in the}$ $\text{product (X) of the given reaction?}$ $\text{KMnO}_4 \xrightarrow{\text{H}^+} \text{X (product having Mn)}$
Options:
  • 1. $2$
  • 2. $4$
  • 3. $0$
  • 4. $6$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: In acidic medium } \text{KMnO}_4 \text{ goes to } \text{Mn}^{2+}. $ $\text{In acidic medium } \text{KMnO}_4 \text{ goes to } \text{Mn}^{2+} \text{ e.g. } \text{MnSO}_4. $ $\text{The } \text{KMnO}_4 \text{ has zero unpaired electrons (hence it is diamagnetic)} $ $\text{because it has Mn at +7 oxidation state (electronic configuration } (n-1)d^0ns^0). $ $\text{Mn}^{2+} \text{ has 5 unpaired electrons as it has } (n-1)d^5ns^0 \text{ electronic} $ $\text{configuration so it has 5.92 B.M. magnetic moment so difference will} $ $\text{be 5.92 B.M. Nearest integer = 6.}$
