The correct answer is: 6

A spin-only magnetic moment occurs when an electron rotates on its own axis and generates a magnetic field.

μ = n ( n + 2 )BM
Here, n is the number of unpaired electrons.
The unit for a spin-only magnetic moment is the Bohr magneton (BM).

MnH2O62+

Mn2+=3d5

μ=5(5+2)=5.91BM
