Thank you soo for the explanation. But I have a question, isn't the electron configuration of Mn 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d5. What I don't understand is why you wrote 3d3.
I thought Zinc was a non transition element but you used it in an example in the video. In the exam, if I say zinc in a transition metal do I loose points?
At this level (HL IB chem), students only need to know that elements with unpaired electrons are paramagnetic and those with no unpaired electrons are diamagnetic.
Thank u for this effective explanation. It was clearly explained. And the experiment was superb! ❤

In MnO2 the oxidation state of Mn is +4
oh Im sorry, I forgot that 4s2 is included and that we remove 2 electrons from it. Thank you
ahh you're the best! Thank you so much!
+skluverbreezy Thanks for the feedback.
it was quite interesting as it was practically shown.....
+Simran Sharma Thanks for the feedback.
Very good lecture. Thank you Sir.
Amazing!

Ahh never mind, I get it now. You are emphasizing on the fact that it is a non transition metal by showing that the magnet has no effect on it.
Yes - zinc is a d-block element but it is not a transition element.
well explained
Superb.....thank you so much....
Hello, what about ferromagnetism? do we need to know it sir?
Ferromagnetism is not covered in the chemistry syllabus.
Vary good
This is actually very helpful
However, do you have anything on Ferromagnetism?
+shastri doorgah Ferromagnetism is not covered in the syllabus so I didn't include it in the video.
Just wondering, what's wrong with your microphone?
+Sharvin Nannan Panday Nothing that I'm aware of. Is there a problem with the sound on the video?
My bad Mr. Jones. There was an error with my speakers! My apologies once again! Keep it up with your videos, you are a master of your craft :)
Thank you very much!
why only 3d, though?
Because the transition elements in the first row d-block have unpaired electrons.
ferromagnetic ?
Ferromagnetism is not covered in IB chemistry.
I would of thought hybrid molecular orbitals would be more informative than the single atom orbitals?
At this level (HL IB chem), students only need to know that elements with unpaired electrons are paramagnetic and those with no unpaired electrons are diamagnetic.
