Text Solution

Verified by Experts

False Potassium ferrocyanide `[Fe^(+2)(CN)_(6)]^(4-)` is diamagnetic but potassium ferricyanide `K_(3)[Fe^(+3)(CN)_(6)]^(3-)`
is paramagnetic
`Fe^(+2) =3d^(6),CN^(Θ)` is a strong ligand so pairing occurs and have no unpaired electrons. Hence diamagnetic
`Fe^(+3) =3d^(5)`, pairing occurs and have one unpaired electron So paramagnetic .

पोटैशियम फेरोसायनाइड तथा पोटैशियम फेरीसायनाइड दोनों प्रतिचुम्बकीय हैं।

पोटेशियम फैरोसायनाइड है

कथन : पोटेशियम फेरोसायनाईड प्रति चुम्बकीय है जबकि पोटेशियम फेरीसायनाईड अनुचुम्बकीय है।
कारण : फेरोसायनाईड आयन में क्रिस्ट्रल क्षेत्र विपाटन फेरीसायनाईड आयन की अपेक्षा अधिक होता है।
