Which ONE of these cations has the same number of unpaired electrons as Fe2+ ? A) Ni2+ B) Fe3+ C) Cr2+ D) Mn2+ E) Co2+

Explanation:

Fe2+ Has 4 unpaired electrons.

By method of elimination;

Option A: Ni2+ has two unpaired electrons. so this option is wrong.

Option B: There are 5 unpaired electrons in the Fe3+ ion. so this option is wrong.

Option C: There are 4 unpaired electrons in the Cr2+ ion. so this option is correct.

Option D: There are 5 unpaired electrons in the Mn2+ ion. so this option is wrong.

Option E: There are 3 unpaired electrons in the Co2+ ion. so this option is wrong.
