Options:
A) $ C{r^{2+}}and,M{n^{2+}} $
B) $ {V^{2+}}and,C{o^{2+}} $
C) $ {V^{2+}}and,F{e^{2+}} $
D) $ C{o^{2+}}and,F{e^{2+}} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
- As ${H_2O}$ is a weak field ligand. It readily forms high spin complexes. In $[M(H_2O)_6]CI_2$ , M exist in +2 oxidation state.
