Options:
  • A $\mu \alpha n^2$
  • B $\mu \alpha \mathrm{n}$
  • C $\mu \alpha \frac{1}{n}$
  • D $\mu \alpha \frac{1}{\mathrm{n}^2}$

The correct answer is: $\mu \alpha \mathrm{n}$
Magnetic moment is given as
$\mu=-\frac{\mathrm{neh}}{2 \mathrm{~m}}$
Here, $\mathrm{n}=$ principle quantum number $\mu \propto \mathrm{n}$
