Which is not arranged in the correct sequence?
decreasing basic strength
increasing magnetic moment
- Increasing number of oxidation states
- Increasing stability
As learnt in
Magnetic Quantum Number (m) -
It gives information about the spatial orientation of the orbital with respect to standard set of co-ordinate axis.
-
The magnetic moment is maximum when the maximum number of orbitals are occupied by single electrons.
Clearly, that is not the case in option 2 as d5 has maximum magnetic moment.
