    The maximum unpaired electrons an present in:

    A) \[\text{C}{{\text{a}}^{2+}}\]

    B)                                         \[F{{e}^{2+}}\]

    C)         \[N{{i}^{2+}}\] 

    D)         \[M{{n}^{2+}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The electronic configuration of these ions are: \[C{{a}^{2+}}=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},2{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}\]           \[(n=0)\] \[F{{e}^{2+}}=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{6}}\]       \[(n=4)\] \[N{{i}^{2+}}=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{8}}\]       \[(n=2)\] \[M{{n}^{2+}}=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{5}}\]     \[(n=5)\] Hence, \[\text{M}{{\text{n}}^{\text{2+}}}\]has maximum number of unpaired electrons.
