Select all atoms and/or ions which you anticipate will be attracted to a magnetic field
Group of answer choices
Fe
Zn2+
Mg
Cl-
Fe3+
Fe2+
Ar
Xe1+
Answer ➡️
Fe
Mg
Fe 3+
Fe 2+
above 4 atom/ion are anticipate will be attracted to magnetic field
Explanation :-
paramagnetic atoms, ion are slightly attracted to a magnetic field.
Fe is Paramagnetic. Fe metal has 2 unpaired electrons.
Zn2+ is d10 system. No unpaired electrons, therefore diamagnetic
Mg is the paramagnetic metal, magnet will weakly attract
Cl- is dimagentic
Fe 3+ Paramagnetic (1 lone electron).
Fe 2+ Usually, paramagnetic. However because there are an even number of electrons in Fe2+, it is possible that all of the electrons could end up paired in certain situations
Ar dimagentic
Xe1+ Is dimagnetic.
