A

(a) decrease in magnetic moment

B

(b) increase in coordination number

C

(c) decrease in coordination number

D

(d) increase in magnetic moment

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`[Fe(CNS)_6]^(3-)` is inner-orbital complex with one electron unpaired while `[FeF_6]^(3-)` is outer-orbital complex with five unpaired electrons.
