Explanation:
So, spin only magnetic moment
$ =\sqrt{1(1+2)} $
$ \begin{aligned} & =\sqrt{3} \simeq 2 \mathrm{~B} . \mathrm{M} \end{aligned} $
In the given reaction

The number of chiral carbon/s in product A is ___________.
Explanation:

2 chiral carbons are there in product A.
A hydrocarbon 'X' is found to have molar mass of 80. A 10.0 mg of compound 'X' on hydrogenation consumed 8.40 mL of H2 gas (measured at STP). Ozonolysis of compound 'X' yields only formaldehyde and dialdehyde. The total number of fragments/molecules produced from the ozonolysis of compound 'X' is _____________.
Explanation:
moles consumed of $\mathrm{H}_{2}=\frac{8.4}{22.4} 0.375 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~mol}$.
$\frac{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{H}_{2}}}{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{X}}}=\frac{0.375}{0.125}=3$
So, the compound $\mathrm{X}$ have 3 double bond.
Ozonolysis of the compound yield formaldehyde and dialdehyde.
The compound is
$ \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}_{2} $
Molecular mass $=(12 \times 6)+1 \times 8=72+8=80 \,\mathrm{amu}$
Ozonolysis form:
