Fe^(2+) is paramagnetic

Assertion : Fe_(3)O_(4) is paramagnetic at room temperature and becomes ferromagnetic at 850 K Reason : The randomization of spin takes place with temperature.

Assertion: K_(4)[Fe(CN_(6)] is diamagnetic and [Fe(H_(2)O)_(6)]Cl_(3) is paramagnetic. Reason: Hybridisation of central metal in K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]" is "sp^(3) d^(2) , which in [Fe(H_(2)O)_(6)]Cl_(3)" is "d^(2) sp^(3) .

Statement I [Fe(H_(2)O)_(5)NO]SO_(4) is paramagnetic Statement II The Fe in [Fe(H_(2)O)_(5)NO]SO_(4) has three unpaired electrons .

Given below are two statements : Statement I: [Mn ( CN ) _(6) ] ^(3-) , [Fe (CN) _(6) ] ^(3-) and [Co (C _(2) O_(4)) _(3) ] ^(3-) are d ^(2) sp ^(3) hybridised. Statement II: [Mn Cl _(6) ] ^(3-) and [Fe F_(6)]^(3-) are paramagnetic and have 4 and 5 unpaired electrons, respectively. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
