How would you account for the following :
`[Fe(CN)_6]^(3-)` is weakly paramagnetic while `[Fe(CN)_6]^(4-)` is diamagnetic

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To account for the magnetic properties of the complexes \([Fe(CN)_6]^{3-}\) and \([Fe(CN)_6]^{4-}\), we need to analyze the oxidation states of iron in these complexes and the resulting electron configurations. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Determine the Oxidation State of Iron:** - For \([Fe(CN)_6]^{4-}\): - Let the oxidation state of iron be \(x\). - The cyanide ion (CN) has a charge of \(-1\) and there are 6 cyanide ions. ...
