Detailed Solution

Magnetic moment of A+3 = 5.48×10-23 J/T 

Given 1 BM = 9.27 × 10-24 J/T

Magnetic moment of  A+35.48 × 10-239.27 × 10-24=5.9BM

n(n+2)=5.9 n=5

Number of unpaired electrons in A+3 ion = 5

Since it belongs to 4th period and having 5 unpaired electrons it must be a 3d -series element

Thus A+3 = [Ar]3d5

then A(z = 26) = [Ar]4s23d6

Element 'A' is Iron (Fe)
