The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the octahedral complex with a crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) of -1.2Δ₀, we will analyze the implications of this value step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding CFSE CFSE is a measure of the energy difference between the electrons in the lower energy t₂g orbitals and the higher energy eₕ orbitals in an octahedral complex. The formula for CFSE in an octahedral field is given by: \[ \text{CFSE} = (n_{t2g} \times -0.4Δ₀) + (n_{eg} \times 0.6Δ₀) \] where \( n_{t2g} \) is the number of electrons in the t₂g orbitals and \( n_{eg} \) is the number of electrons in the eₕ orbitals. ### Step 2: Setting Up the Equation Given that CFSE = -1.2Δ₀, we can set up the equation: \[ -1.2Δ₀ = (n_{t2g} \times -0.4Δ₀) + (n_{eg} \times 0.6Δ₀) \] ### Step 3: Analyzing Possible Configurations 1. **Case 1: 3 Electrons in t₂g** - If \( n_{t2g} = 3 \) and \( n_{eg} = 0 \): \[ \text{CFSE} = 3 \times -0.4Δ₀ + 0 \times 0.6Δ₀ = -1.2Δ₀ \] This configuration is valid. 2. **Case 2: 6 Electrons in t₂g and 2 in eₕ (Low Spin)** - If \( n_{t2g} = 6 \) and \( n_{eg} = 0 \): \[ \text{CFSE} = 6 \times -0.4Δ₀ + 0 \times 0.6Δ₀ = -2.4Δ₀ \] (not valid) - If \( n_{t2g} = 4 \) and \( n_{eg} = 2 \): \[ \text{CFSE} = 4 \times -0.4Δ₀ + 2 \times 0.6Δ₀ = -1.6Δ₀ \] (not valid) - If \( n_{t2g} = 2 \) and \( n_{eg} = 4 \): \[ \text{CFSE} = 2 \times -0.4Δ₀ + 4 \times 0.6Δ₀ = 2.0Δ₀ \] (not valid) - If \( n_{t2g} = 4 \) and \( n_{eg} = 2 \): \[ \text{CFSE} = 4 \times -0.4Δ₀ + 2 \times 0.6Δ₀ = -1.2Δ₀ \] (valid) ### Step 4: Determining Spin State From the configurations, we can conclude: - The complex can be either a low-spin or high-spin complex based on the arrangement of electrons. ### Step 5: Magnetic Moment Calculation The magnetic moment (μ) can be calculated using the formula: \[ μ = \sqrt{n(n + 2)} \] where \( n \) is the number of unpaired electrons. - For 2 unpaired electrons: \[ μ = \sqrt{2(2 + 2)} = \sqrt{8} \] - For 3 unpaired electrons: \[ μ = \sqrt{3(3 + 2)} = \sqrt{15} \] ### Conclusion Based on the analysis, we can conclude: 1. The complex can exhibit both low-spin and high-spin configurations. 2. The type of hybridization depends on the nature of ligands and the number of ligands. 3. The magnetic moment can either be √15 or √8 Bohr magneton. ### Final Statements All the statements regarding the octahedral complex having CFSE = -1.2Δ₀ are correct.
