Using the valence bond approach, predict the shape and magnetic character of `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)` ion.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Fe(26) : [Ar]4s^(2)3d^(6), Fe3+ : [Ar]4s^(0)3d^(5)`.
`CN^(-)` is strong field ligand, it will cause pairing of electrons.

It has octahedral shape and is paramagnetic in nature due to presence of one unpaired electron.
