Unparid electrons in [FeCI(6)]^(3+) and ...

Unparid electrons in `[FeCI_(6)]^(3+)` and `[Fe(CN)_(4)]^(2-)` and respectively

A

5 and 2

B

5 and 1

C

3 and 2

D

2 and 3

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(b) In the formation of `FeCI_(6)^(3-)` complex , `CN^(-)` do not cause pairing because it is a wek field llgand, number of unpaired electrons are five .
On the other hand , in `Fe(CN)_(6)^(2-)` complex `CN^(-)` is a strong filled ligand, it cause pairing so the number of unpairid electron is one.
