Given below are two statements:Statement I: Ferromagnetism is considered as an extreme form of paramagnetism.Statement II: The number of unpaired electrons in a ion () is the same as that of a ion ().In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A
    Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. B
    Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. C
    Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. D
    Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Statement I: Ferromagnetism is indeed an extreme case of paramagnetism where the individual magnetic moments are strong enough to align spontaneously even in the absence of an external field. This statement is true.Statement II: * (): The electronic configuration is . It has unpaired electrons. (): The configuration of is . For , it becomes . It has unpaired electrons.Since , Statement II is false.
