As we learnt in

Calculation of spin only magnetic moment -

\mu =\sqrt{n(n+2)}

\mu =magnetic\:moment\:in(BM)

where n = no. of unpaired electron 

n=1......5(no.\:of\:unpaired\:e^{-})

- wherein

V^{2+}\rightarrow3d^{3}=\sqrt{3(3+2)}

=\sqrt{15}

=3.87\:\:\:BM

3+.9\rightarrow 3.9(BM)

 

 The magnetic moment of = Ni^{2+} = \sqrt{2\left ( 2+2 \right )}

=\sqrt{8}= 2.84
