The stability of ferric ion is due to

A

half-filled d-orbitals

B

half-filled f-orbitals

C

compltetly filled d-orbitals

D

completely filledf-orbitals

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Fe(Z= 26) = 3d^(6)4s^(2)`
`:. Fe^(3+) = 3d^(5)` . Thus`,Fe^(3+)` ion is quite stabledue to half-filled d-orbitals.
