The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct order of magnetic moments among the given coordination compounds, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Coordination Compounds We have three coordination compounds to analyze: 1. \( \text{[Fe(CN)}_6]^{4-} \) 2. \( \text{[CoCl}_4]^{2-} \) 3. \( \text{[MnCl}_4]^{2+} \) ### Step 2: Determine the Oxidation States and Electron Configurations 1. **For \( \text{[Fe(CN)}_6]^{4-} \)**: - Oxidation state of Fe: \( x + 6(-1) = -4 \) → \( x = +2 \) - Electron configuration of \( \text{Fe}^{2+} \): \( [Ar] 3d^6 \) 2. **For \( \text{[CoCl}_4]^{2-} \)**: - Oxidation state of Co: \( x + 4(-1) = -2 \) → \( x = +2 \) - Electron configuration of \( \text{Co}^{2+} \): \( [Ar] 3d^7 \) 3. **For \( \text{[MnCl}_4]^{2+} \)**: - Oxidation state of Mn: \( x + 4(-1) = +2 \) → \( x = +2 \) - Electron configuration of \( \text{Mn}^{2+} \): \( [Ar] 3d^5 \) ### Step 3: Determine the Number of Unpaired Electrons 1. **For \( \text{[Fe(CN)}_6]^{4-} \)**: - \( \text{CN}^- \) is a strong field ligand, leading to pairing of electrons. - Configuration: \( 3d^6 \) → All electrons are paired. - Unpaired electrons = 0. 2. **For \( \text{[CoCl}_4]^{2-} \)**: - \( \text{Cl}^- \) is a weak field ligand, resulting in unpaired electrons. - Configuration: \( 3d^7 \) → 3 unpaired electrons. - Unpaired electrons = 3. 3. **For \( \text{[MnCl}_4]^{2+} \)**: - \( \text{Cl}^- \) is also a weak field ligand. - Configuration: \( 3d^5 \) → 5 unpaired electrons. - Unpaired electrons = 5. ### Step 4: Calculate the Magnetic Moments The magnetic moment (\( \mu \)) can be calculated using the formula: \[ \mu = \sqrt{n(n + 2)} \text{ B.M.} \] where \( n \) is the number of unpaired electrons. 1. **For \( \text{[Fe(CN)}_6]^{4-} \)**: - \( n = 0 \) - \( \mu = \sqrt{0(0 + 2)} = 0 \text{ B.M.} \) 2. **For \( \text{[CoCl}_4]^{2-} \)**: - \( n = 3 \) - \( \mu = \sqrt{3(3 + 2)} = \sqrt{15} \approx 3.87 \text{ B.M.} \) 3. **For \( \text{[MnCl}_4]^{2+} \)**: - \( n = 5 \) - \( \mu = \sqrt{5(5 + 2)} = \sqrt{35} \approx 5.92 \text{ B.M.} \) ### Step 5: Arrange the Compounds in Increasing Order of Magnetic Moments Based on the calculated magnetic moments: 1. \( \text{[Fe(CN)}_6]^{4-} \): 0 B.M. 2. \( \text{[CoCl}_4]^{2-} \): \( \sqrt{15} \approx 3.87 \) B.M. 3. \( \text{[MnCl}_4]^{2+} \): \( \sqrt{35} \approx 5.92 \) B.M. ### Final Order The correct order of magnetic moments is: \[ \text{[Fe(CN)}_6]^{4-} < \text{[CoCl}_4]^{2-} < \text{[MnCl}_4]^{2+} \]
