The correct order of spin-only magnetic moments among the following is : (Atomic number : Mn = 25, Co = 27, Ni = 28, Zn = 30)

Question

The correct order of spin-only magnetic moments among the following is :
(Atomic number : Mn = 25, Co = 27, Ni = 28, Zn = 30)

[ZnCl₄]^2- > [NiCl₄]^2- > [CoCl₄]^2- > [MnCl₄]^2-

[CoCl₄]^2- > [MnCl₄]^2- > [NiCl₄]^2- > [ZnCl₄]^2-

[NiCl₄]^2- > [CoCl₄]^2- > [MnCl₄]^2- > [ZnCl₄]^2-

[MnCl₄]^2- > [CoCl₄]^2- > [NiCl₄]^2- > [ZnCl₄]^2-
