$\sqrt{4s(s + 1)}$

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The spin magnetic moment $(\mu_s)$ of an electron is given by the formula $\mu_s = \sqrt{4s(s + 1)} 	ext{ BM}$,where $s$ is the spin quantum number.For a single electron,$s = 1/2$.Substituting this value,$\mu_s = \sqrt{4(1/2)(1/2 + 1)} = \sqrt{2(3/2)} = \sqrt{3} \approx 1.732 	ext{ BM}$.This is also expressed as $\mu = \sqrt{n(n + 2)} 	ext{ BM}$,where $n$ is the number of unpaired electrons.
