उत्तर
The electronic configuration of Ce and Ce3+ ions is as follows:
Ce (Z = 58): 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p6 4d10 4f1 5s2 5p6 5d1 6s2
or, [Xe] 4f1 5d1 6s2
Ce3+ (Z = 55): [Xe] 4f1
Thus, Ce3+ has only one unpaired electron, i.e., n = 1
∴ μs = `sqrt(n(n + 2))`
= `sqrt(1 xx (1 + 2))`
= `sqrt3`
= 1.732 BM
