Coordination Compounds - Result Question 59

####66. [Cr(H2O)6]Cl3( at no. of Cr=24) has a magnetic moment of 3.83B. M. The correct distribution of 3d electrons in the chromium of the complex is

(a) 3dxy1,(3dx2y2)1,3dyz1

[2006]

(b) 3dxy1,3dyz1,3dxz1

(c) 3dxy1,3dyz1,3dz12

(d) (3dx2y2)1,3dz2,3dxz1

Show Answer

Solution:

(b) μ=n(n+2)

3.83=n(n+2)

on solving n=3

As per magnetic moment, it has three unpaired electron.

Cr3+ will have configuration as =

1s22s22p63s23p63d3

So 3dxy13dyz13dxz1
