Options:
A) $ {{[Mn{{(H _2O)}_6}]}^{3+}} $
B) $ {{[Fe{{(H _2O)}_6}]}^{3+}} $
C) $ {{[Co{{(H _2O)}_6}]}^{2+}}, $
D) $ {{[Co{{(H _2O)}_6}]}^{3+}} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
- The CFSE for octahedral complex is given by
$ CFSE=[-0.4t _{2g}{e^{-}}+0.6e _{g}{e^{-}}] $ For $ M{n^{3+}},,[3d^{4}]\to ,t_2g^{3},e_g^{1} $
$ \therefore $ $ CFSE=[-0.4,\times 3+0.6\times 1] $ = 0.6 For $ F{e^{3+}},[3d^{5}]\to t_2g^{3}e_g^{2} $
$ CFSE,=[-(0.4\times 3)+(0.6\times 2)]=0 $ For $ C{o^{2+}},[3d^{7}]\to t_2g^{5}e_g^{2} $
$ CFSE,=[(-0.4\times 5),+(2\times 0.6)],=-0.8 $ For $ C{o^{3+}},[3d^{6}]\to t_2g^{4}e_g^{2} $
$ CFSE=[(-0.4\times 4),+(2\times 0.6)]=-0.4 $
